Fedora Test 3, is, most certainly, as the name says, a test. In my experience there are a few problems and a few bugs that would keep me from recommending it as an everyday desktop replacement, but nonetheless, Fedora is an Operating System (distro) worth watching out.

"Or you could install SciTech SNAP Graphics for Linux, which does support the ATI 9600 pro and 9800 pro (and about 150 others)"
I notice that, according to your site, that SciTech is an Official Driver Development Partner with ATI. Does that mean ATI will be abandoning their own binary releases and supporting XFree86 through SNAP exclusively?
Well XIG has a strong relationship with ATI, Matrox and Nvidia, yet, these companies haven't stopped developing drivers for Linux.
The problem with SNAP is that it doesn't have 3d acceleration or hardware OpenGL, until those are fixed you might as well stick to the standard 2d accelerated drivers included with XFree86.
