- Free Developer's Version is Quite Enjoyble
The only problem I had was that, being a novice to web app development and the ins-and-outs of servers, I could not get ColdFusion to run based solely on on Macromedia's installation directions -- they weren't complete enough for me.
For Mac OS X I’ve found the best installation instructions are at Community MX: "ColdFusion MX 7 on Macintosh OS X: Part 2." (Java 1.4.2 or better is needed):.

When I upgraded my version of MAMP (An free and easy to install application of MySQL, Apache, PHP, phpMyAdmin, etc.) ColdFusion could no longer connect to MySQL databases. I found that when using with MYSQL 4.1 or above the JDBC connector is needed and , in this case, Macromedia's instruction were sufficient to solve my problem:

I hope this was helpful to any other beginners out there.
