Well, a simple restore (via iTunes) should "revirginize" the phone allowing you to activate it with your ATT account.

Yes, it will work with your Mac even though it was used with a windows, just plug it into your computer and do the restore and it will be synced with yours

As far as other things to look for, all I know is to check the charge and for any physical damage to the phone.

Otherwise, enjoy!

No, MAC is the Media Access Control device, which is your network card.
You can sync your iPhone with your Mac, however.

No, your network card is a NIC. It *has* a MAC, but MAC != NIC.
