Er... I think these are not quite right (in the video world, at least). It is generally accepted that "High Colour" is 16-bit and "True Colour" is 24-bit. My understanding is that 32-bit colour is a special mode used by some scanners and prepress software to improve the accuracy of final output 24-bit mode.
