We're telling you that _YOU_ DON'T have a 24bpp lcd _anywhere_. Your desktop's TFT is hardly 24bpp (most probably 18). Mine's 18bpp. And I've seen +$1000 flat tvs with a 14bpp panel! And 32bpp output is nonsense.

I personally CAN'T see the difference between 16 and 18bpp and thus the reason I'm asking for a conclusive test. A gray gradient just doesn't cut it.

Pretty funny you mention it, because Yes. Gyricon or eInk are so good.
