Dave,

Does Boot Camp or Parallels support Windows 7 now?

Yes it does. In fact, I heard the 2011 Macbook Airs no longer support
WinXP using Boot Camp at all -- only Win7 variants. I heard it was a
(lack of) device drivers issue with the newer models. I think WinXP
is still permitted using virtualization; just not Boot Camp.

When using Lion OSX and Win7, I believe the recommendation is to use
the latest Parallels (version 7).
