Rooting is basically unlocking the device to allow you access to more features. The Nook color is basically a touchscreen Android tablet that is restricted to being an ebook reader and has a few other apps that B&N installed on it. Rooting your device allows you to access the Android Marketplace to download other apps that are available to Android devices.
