Check out Picture Window Pro. Completely 16bit. And for me, a more intuitive
user interface than PS. Quite affordable (less than $100).
Their new adavanced sharpening tool rivals Neat Image!
Dowload a trial version from dl-c.com

Yup, it does not cost me anything more than working with 8bits but a bit of
storage for those images that I archive for future editing. So why risk
loosing information.
Arguing for 8bits is just plain silly.
