I would go with the msi as it is more geared towards gaming. For programming both laptops are good. Of course this will depend on what the programs you make and what software you will be using to make them. If they are originally on the mac then mac will obviously win but this is not the case in many cases. However bootcamping on macs are not good as their drivers affect performance and battery life. Plus the gpu is a lot stronger in the msi. Macs are only good for image and video editing. Windows are better for gaming.
