If so do or do you not like their stuff?  And why or why not?

Search is your friend. This has been discussed on MATY over and over and over again. There are tons of other threads that reference this topic that I didn't bother to link because well, why should I do all of the work for you? Seriously, all I did was type the words "omega driver" into the search box. You've been here for long enough to know better than to post a thread without searching first.

Looks like the ATI people like them.  I'm running Nvidia.  I guess I'll test them out to see if I like them for Nvidia.  If not I can always switch back.

Edit:  I guess I could take them or leave them.  Using their drivers didn't fix any thing, but didn't break anything either.

Back in the days of the 7.x ATI drivers, the Omega drivers were clearly better.  But with the 8.x series, AMD/ATI seems to have taken a page from them and added a lot of their enhancements back into the official drivers, so there doesn't seem to be as much of a difference anymore.

I had graphic issues and a video card crash last time I tried the Omega drivers. I have an ATI Radeon X850 with 256MB RAM, which really needs upgrading.  I didn't keep the Omega driver so I can't tell you what version it was, but I trialled it about 4 months ago.
