You can either use ConTeXt MKII (with pdftex, invoked with "texexec") or ConTeXt MKIV (with luatex, invoked with "context"). How old was the manual that you were reading? In MKII you need \setupcolors[state=start] to get the colors working. MKII is not really preferable, except when you are looking for slightly more stability or when you don't need some advanced features. It is more stable, older and uses pdftex instead of luatex. But it also lacks many nice features and bugs from ConTeXt MKIV :).
