24-bit means 8 bits per RGB channel. 32-bit means 8 bits per RGB
channel plus 8 bits alpha, which isn't very useful on the display. So I
wouldn't worry about it. (If you had a >8bpp display, that would be a
different story, but those aren't very common.)
Of course, lots of programs use 32 bit offscreen surfaces, but that's a
different story.
