If the Airport card is a 802.11b card, you can use any wireless 802.11b or g router that's capable of the same encryption level - I *think* the Airport doesn't support 64 bit, just 128 and maybe higher. Internet sharing is as simple as it is with a PC, just make sure it has TCP/IP that can be properly configured to the router. I dunno how to share a printer though unless you use a print server that will work with a Mac and a PC, I *assume* there are ways to share a printer off the PC or the Mac but you need a Mac guy that also knows PC's to tell you how.
