I've just purchased a dual 1.5GB G4 tower. With this powerful computer, I still seem to have to do all my midi work in OS 9.2 using the old thecnology of the OMS set up. Is there any hope for OS X to be able to work midi programs? I understand that Digital Performer (available in September) will be able to work in OS X - what drivers will it use to work with midi files?

are you sure your studio 4 needs oms?
i used a studio 4 for many years with logic, i can assure you oms was definitely not necassary.  i also use an imate. griffin are extremely reliable, they always release new drivers incredibly quickly, you don't need to worry about them. as for x, it uses core midi to deal with midi of course. it's going to be a question of the manufacturer of your interface(opcode) providing support(forget it), or core midi providing support(way likely, the guy responsible for core midi just happens to be the same person that wrote oms!), oms always featured built in support for known devices! obviously, it's not necassary to be worrying TOO much about this at the moment, none of the bl**#y sequencers even work in classic yet! so, i just purchased 10.2, very smooth, faster, am impressed, yes, a configurable midi system preference. not even motu are actually shipping a x.2 app yet...  oh yeah, sorry, but the audiowerk was always a piece of c^*p.
