[ale] Nvidia vs ATI on low cost laptops

[Dow Hurst]

Also, the performance of the drivers for ATI have not been optimized at 
all if they are from an open source project.  Only the closed source 
drivers from ATI have any real optimizations but I think they are still 
pretty beta or alpha from what I've read.  Maybe the latest version 
would be better than what I read in a magazine article this past month.
