No, the old Vaio only has 16 and 32-bit available. The Aquarium runs at 9 FPS in 32-bit and 14 FPS in 16-bit. Like all my other machines, dithering makes the two modes virtually indistinguishable visually, so I always run everything in 16-bit.

OK, I'll see if I can dredge up some other system that has 24-bit.

I presume you've digested my reply #35. As others have indicated, simulation "features" are more important at the moment.

I have one other set of problems that is related to this topic. Would you prefer that I describe it in this topic, or in a new topic?

[Of course, I could save it for later posting - or never post it - but I prefer to get Beta-testing observations on the record, and move on]
