I'm using an Intel Imac that I bought last year. It has the nVidia 7300GT video card.

I'm using DAZ|Studio 2.0 which requires OpenGL 1.5... The 7300GT only gives 1.4x. I experience some crashes.

I have 2 PCs, with the nVidia 6150 chip. They offer OpenGL 2.0. I know the PC's graphics card drivers are updated every couple months or so, through the nVidia site...

If I'm correct. Apple handles all our driver updates. What do I need to do to get the drivers to upgrade my OpenGL capacity? Do I need to upgrade from OSX Tiger to Leopard?

According to this table, a 7300 running 10.4.11 should support OGL2.0. If it doesn't already support OGL1.5, then I doubt you're going to see Apple add OGL1.5 support in the future.
