Networking PC and Apple computers?

This is going to be a silly question, but all wireless routers can network computers via wireless (802.11 b/g/etc.) AND wired right?? i can't seem to find the answer to this question, and when looking at routers, i'm assuming that's what the number of ports mean (number of computers connecting by wire). I just wanted to be 100% sure on this. for example Linksys Router

and is it possible to network a PC AND a Mac???

Yes. I do it.
 
do you just connect it?? and if connecting the mac by wireless, does a mac use 802.11b/g?? cause i don't know about this airport business...
 
They call it "airport" and "airport extreme" because, when you are shipping broadcom wireless chipsets, you need some reason to charge good money for them. They follow the same standards, though.
