It's easy-as-hell in OS X, somewhat complicated in Linux, and damn-near-impossible (but still 'doable') in XP.
Hell, I've used my Mac mini as an access point for both my DS and PSP before.

Not hard at all on a Mac. Seven clicks and you're setup as an access point.
Windows XP just wants to see another Windows client, that's all. But it can be fooled.
Linux? Be comfortable with the command line.
