You'll have to find out what kind of input your CNC mill will accept, if you have one available already. As far as CAD software goes, I like Autocad2000 and Cadkey. I think if you learn the ropes of any CAD package, transferring your knowledge to another package is fairly easy.
 
Yeah, I agree with zer0, learn one and the reast are easy to pick up. I use Autocad2004 and Pro-E. If you really want some advice as far as design goes, I can think of no one who has put more time into waterblock design than Cather.
