I understood they have been using 32 bit for some time now.
So it would be 32/96 or 32/192.


Absolutely not. There would be no point. In fact 20 bit would be fine. Since
data tends to be stored by the byte, 24 bits is more convenient though.

They do use 32 bit processors in the PCs of course ( since the i486 ) and decent
DSP chips typically have 56 bit or better MAC registers.
