LCD Monitor Questions

[Patrice LACOUTURE (GMail)]

For sure 6-bit would be 64*64*64 = 262144 colors, which is definitely 
*NOT* 16.2 million.

Even 2 colors with 8 bits and one with 7 bit would be a bit more than 8 
million colors.

Therefore the reason must be something else than bit depth, though I 
haven't any clue what it might be, sorry.

Just my 1.8c.
