Hi,
If I want to use wireless AirPort connection under Windoze XP running in Parallels do I have to specifically turn on AirPort and connect to wireless network in MacOS X, or the AirPort should be turned off in MacOS X and the wireless network setup is all done under Windoze/Parallels?

Take a look in the Alternative Operating System forum to see what others have done under Parallels. It seems that many have had good success with their AirPort cards.

I don't have an Intel Mac to play with, but it seems that turning off the AirPort card in OS X would make it unavailable to Parallels-a Mac application-to use. Windows should be able to handle configuring and using the card.
