My first post!

I'm buying a New Mac Pro, with an Airport Card and possible Airport Extreme, can I hook up my old G4 (no wireless card, ) via hardwire ethernet to the Airport Extreme, hook up my printer to the Airport Extreme via UBS and either hardwire or wireless my Mac Pro and have them all see each other, have internet and have both computer's print? or should I go another route to get the G4 wireless? Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks
Snodsy

Absoluetly. Check out Networking on Leopard. 7 videos which tell you how to share your printers, files and all that stuff. Setup your AirPort Extreme/Time Capsule will also be helpful for you.
