Hey guys. I'm a little confused on display types. I don't mean LCD or CRT. What the hell does WSXGA+, XGA, TFT and all those mean? I've asked some guys but they don't know either. Thanks!
 
TFT-
Thin Film Transistor LCD panel. A type of LCD flat panel display screen in which each pixel is controlled by one to four transistors. The TFT technology provides the best resolution of all the flat panel techniques, but it is also the most expensive. TFT screens are sometimes called active matrix LCDs.

XGA-
eXtended Graphics Array Card. IBM's graphics standard that includes VGA and extended resolutions up to 1024 x 768 (interlaced 35 kHz) with 65k colors. This card uses a 15-pin HD VGA-style connector.

WSXGA-
WSXGA defines a class of SXGA displays with a width resolution sufficient to create an aspect ratio of 16:9. Resolution is defined as the number of individual dots that a display uses to create an image. These dots are called pixels. A WSXGA display has 1920 to 1600 horizontal pixels and 1080 to 900 vertical pixels, respectively, that are used to compose the image delivered by the projector.
