 OT Airport Express music streaming
The Apple website doesn't make it clear what you need at the SENDING end, ie
the computer with the songs on it. Will my existing non-Apple B/G wireless
router stream to the Airport Express units (which use wireless N - not sure
if it's backwards compatible), or do I need an additional Airport Extreme or
Express unit at the main computer?

any wireless g or n router should work. you can only stream through
itunes though. you set up the express to join your existing network.
the setup wizard works real good and is easy and straightforward.
