Some interesting references about color contrast on media:

http://www.peachpit.com/guides/content.aspx?g=webdesign&seqNum=277

There are tables and pictures showing which foreground color is the best or bad 
for which background.

I once saw a table similar to above URL in a Commodore 64 manual which tells 
you how to mix and match foreground/background colors with sprites and text.
