Personally, I'd suggest install MacPorts and using it to manage all
these kinds of tools -- makes upgrades happen on your schedule with
good rollback capabilities.

etc. There's plenty of good tutorials on macport if you look around.

You'd still need to install CF outside of that (and if you're not a
glutton for punishment, use CF8 which actually installs easily on a
Mac instead of CF7 and the hassle of installing it.

I use a mac mini very similarly, except that I deploy to it using Ant
or Rake (ruby projects) instead of simply copying/saving files to it.
Keep in mind that unless you're using Linux-friendly databases (eg
MySQL) that you'll still need to have it linking back to the
MSAccess/MSSQL/whatever on your laptop.
