Do you know how to partition a hard drive and install multiple OS's?
As for the laptop, it'd probably be easier to play Hawken on. Again, depending on specs actual performance may vary.

Basically when you boot your computer it'll ask you Mac or Windows. Switching should just require a reboot. I don't own a Mac, but from the mac friends I've talked to it's easy as pie.
You might have to set up a backup, reformat, install the OS's, then transfer the data back though. Again, not a mac user so I can't be sure.
Your specs will still come into play. If you've got a shitty Mac then the game will still run poorly.

In our department we use dual bootable macs. IMO, kind of a waste, since you have more options on a PC anyway, and the money spent on that iMac could buy one HELL of a winbox. We run CAD, 3dsmax, GIS, adobe and all kinds of design goodies in windoze mode. Runs fine, but there are driver issues now and again.
Once mac lost Halo, i gave up..... :/

this is for Snow leopard, they have another version for Lion, no idea what the difference between the two would be, I'm guessing nothing really.

What really matters is the gpu on your mac, apple puts decent cpus in their computers, but they really like to skimp on graphics (especially on their laptops, best card you can get on a MBP is a midrange mobile gpu, good, but isn't going to rival anything in a windows laptop of equal price). To find out what gpu you have, click on the Apple logo on the top left, go to "about this mac", and then click "more info". It should say what gpu you have on that window.
Also, for the people who think that the unibody macbook is hard to replace parts in, it's really not too difficult. You can replace the HDD, RAM, and DVD drive fairly easily, you need a torx screwdriver for the HDD and DVD drive. That's similar to pretty much all other laptops, except that you need a new screwdriver.
