It means 1280 � 800 pixels with an aspect ratio of 16:10

In other words a fairly high resolution that approximates to widescreen (16:9)

TFT is a type of LCD screen that uses thin film transistor (TFT) technology. Each pixel is controlled from 1 to 4 transistors, giving TFT screens the best resolution of all flat-panel displays.
and WXGA basically means wide screen!


Hope this helps - sorry i sound like a geek! I'm not really! lol.

Oh and the TFT bit just means it's a liquid crystal display (as opposed to a cathode ray tube or plasma) At one time they were called TFT to distinguish them from other types of LCD, but nowadays just about all monitor LCDs are TFT
