Muddiest points, week 3 (Multimedia)

I am curious why color representation on computer screens uses red/green/blue, when printers and other media use cyan/magenta/yellow/black. Why is there a difference?

Are there really "frames" in digital video? I thought frames were an analog concept, where a movie camera took actual photographic images at 24 frames/sec rate. Is it a terminology thing, or do digital video cameras use frames anyway?
