You will get nothing mining in a mac. You will actually spend more in power costs and you risk destroying your laptop.

You could always try the USB ASIC Block Erupters, maybe a risky investment, but if you have trouble with hardware or having the technical know how, they are simple to setup.

because the difficulty is growing up like crazy and it may take very long time for you to get more money than you spent buying the errupter and paying electricity.

You better try a different pool. Triplemining not only has tech problems but it also keeps lots of blocks for himself. Not a trustworthy pool. You will get much better results mining at eligius.st (0% fees) or at bitminter to name a few. Take a look at the pool stats thread and you will find much better pools there.

You should really do more research before diving into mining.. Read tutorials, discussions on this forum etc. Read about and understand the difficulty.
