By basic definition a multimedia computer needs to have both Audio and Video capabilities. Today, even the most basic of computers meet the general requirements to be considered multimedia. However the quality of the multimedia experience is affected these components:
Processor/RAM: More powerful processors with more memory improve Gaming types of "media"
Graphics: If you are gaming or watching High Definition movies a better GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) will increase your frame-rate and give you higher resolutions along with optional features including multi-monitor support, HDMI output, 3D capability and on-board codec decompression which frees up your computer's main processor for other things.
Sound: Stereo output is the norm. But many sound cards are capable of full surround output up to 7.1 with either digital output through HDMI or optical TOSlinc.
Media Source: Your favorite movies and music have to come from somewhere, right? So your multimedia computer will usually have some sort of optical drive such as a CD, DVD or Bluray drive. Media can also be stored on flash drives, hard drives or streamed via Ethernet, wi-fi or other wired or wireless networks.
Software: I know, this is not "hardware" by it's very definition. But should be considered as well. A great multimedia computer is useless without the appropriate software. For instance, if you plan on playing Bluray movies in your computer, you will want research the few software suites that even support Bluray playback.

What are the multimedia OS?
The best multimedia OS is debated heavily. Windows is very good because of the wide variety of applications, and hardware that is available. Macs are good because of apples strong dedication to hardware and software that work well with each other, Mac usually achieves lower latencies than Windows can. BeOS was considered one of the top multimedia OS's out there, unfortunately BeOS can no longer support BeOS so most development has stopped, there are people still using BeOS or Haiku, so this is a possiblity if your hardware supports it. Thanks too the huge development base behind Gnu-Linux, it is also a possibility. Gnu-Linux can achieve latencys far lower than Windows and Mac can. Gnu-Linux can be hard to set up for multimedia purpouses if one uses propietary components, such as nVidia or ATI graphics cards, as these things often conflict with the Real-Time patches in multimedia kernels. All in all... It depends on the person, the hardware, and what specifically your doing.
