I assume Boot Camp's XP drivers will have Direct 3D enabled for the Core Duo chipset. The 3D doesn't have to be that robust. Dungeon Keeper 2 dates back from 1999 and runs fine on TNT2 or weaker video cards. I figure a couple more Mac Minis should do the trick. All our internet at home will be done through them.

Me, I still game and do a lot of encoding/transcoding/rendering on the pc. For my wife and kid, their pc use are more modest and can be handled by Boot Camp. If Parallels gain 3D support, I might consider it more.
modest 3d games (personally tried unreal tournament, half-life and warcraft 3) work fine with macbooks (intel gma 950 based). DK2 should run problem free.
