Linux has broad support for a wide range of devices and platforms, so there is no single computer that is "best" suited overall. Generally speaking, any motherboard will "work;" ones with Intel processors and chipsets will probably offer the best performance and stability. Intel graphics cards should work out of the box on any distribution; NVIDIA makes excellent (though proprietary) drivers for their cards. It is probably best to avoid ATI cards and graphics. Virtually all Ethernet adapters work; wireless cards from Intel and Linksys usually have drivers available.

What is one difference of RGB and CMY colore model?
In short: CMYK is subtractive color mostly used in print, while RGB is additive color mostly used in display graphics.
The name of the CMYK color model stands for Cyan (a pale blue) Magenta (a hot pink), Yellow, and Key (or black).
The name of the RGB color model stands for Red, Green, and Blue.
CMYK, or 'four color printing', is what is called a 'subtractive' color model, because it starts with white - such as paper - which is the combination of all colors, and filters of subtracts out those colors not wanted by the application of colored dyes or inks.
Putting, for instance, a cyan lens in front of a white light, or cyan ink on a sheet of white paper, will prevent other wavelengths of light from passing through the lens or reflecting back from the paper. Using combinations of these ink colors in varying amounts will produce the various colors needed for a picture or graphic. Equal amounts of yellow and cyan, for instance, produce a standard, medium green.
Key black is added to the four color printing process because the combination of cyan, magenta, and yellow in practice produce a 'black' that looks more like a dark muddy brown.
RGB is called an 'additive' color model because it starts with the absence of light or color - black - as one would find in a television screen or computer monitor with no power, and adds light in colors as needed.
As with CMYK (and other color models) the combination of these colors in varying amounts creates the secondary and tertiary colors desired for more complex images.
See the links below for more exhaustive information on RGB and CMYK color models.
