With LINQ, one of the ways to know that there may be an additional optimization you could make is to see if you have any foreach iterations in your code. In your case, you can be a bit more declaritive as follows:

var color_type = typeof(System.Drawing.Color);

var color_properties = from prop in color_type.GetProperties()

where prop.PropertyType == color_type

let color = (System.Drawing.Color)prop.GetValue(null, null)

let rgb_int = (uint)color.ToArgb() & (0x00ffffff)

select new { prop, color, rgb_int };

color_properties.ToList().ForEach(

item => Console.WriteLine(" {0} = ({1},{2},{3}) = 0x{4:X00000000}",

item.prop.Name, item.color.R, item.color.G, item.color.B, item.rgb_int));

Even better, thanks Jim!
