And eventhough you are using 32-bit mode, you see only 24-colors, unless you
have some specialiced video card. I also agree that 8-bits/channel is way
too little with color gradations. And for editing purposes 16-bit/channel is
sometimes mandatory. Sadly there are not many (consumer grade) video cards
showing 48-bit colors.
