While the monitor may only see 24-bit information (ignoring its own menus, etc.), the user's computer may be set to 32-bit colour (which basically means "my graphics card/processor can handle alpha overlays; don't waste CPU time calculating this") and putting "24-bit MAX" on the spec sheet/user guide can lead the uninformed to put their machine into a state of poorer performance for no good reason. Yes, it's a bit of a lie, but it's a white lie. | |
