Black is good at radiating heat actually.. I had a friend years ago who worked at Alpine (the car audio company) and they did tests with different colors for amplifiers and black was the best at shedding heat (from the aluminum finned body) even if silver,white etc might have looked cooler to sell in cases, black worked the best.
