Color sells
I found this bit of data on a direct marketing oriented web site - unfortunately I forgot to note which one when I printed it off! But I did find some of these facts interesting...

With 25 to 35 year-old readers, color is an expectation in advertising.

Consumers prefer photographic quality graphics over ads with line art.
Advertisers are perceived more credible with ads that have color photos.
Consumer responses are 30% to 60% higher when 4-color is used. Using 4-color increases the chances that advertising will be read.
Consumers remember color.
After 24 hours, consumer recall of full color ads is 53% higher than 2-color ads, and 63% higher than black & white ads.
Color sells products and ideas up to 85% more effectively.
