Can I hook up my pc laptop to my ImacG5 wirelessly with an airport extreme card for my Imac and a wireless card for my pc laptop? If so....how? Do I need more? An external base station? Can somebody help me?

Just go to control panel-->network connections-->New Connection then just fill in the options and your done. How hard was that?
