  • Windows has so-called 32-bit color. It's actually 24 bits (8 bits per channel [red, green, and blue] times 3) plus an 8-bit transparency channel, which according to what I've been able to read online, is only used for gaming. So again, there would be no advantage if that channel had greater color depth; Windows couldn't use it anyway.
