Monitors

Ok here's possibly the dumbest question I'll ever ask but, is there some sort of code name for the flat screen monitors that have the shiny screens? I was thinking about getting a new one cos my current TFT has a busted cable and the monitor keeps going yellow, but as the cable is built into the monitor I can't just change it.

I wanted to get one of the new monitors with the shiny screens, but I can't tell from the pictures on websites. Is there a special code word that I need to look for?

Sorry I can never work out how to post images, also that's kinda my problem.

Lets start from the top what sort of flat screen monitors are available on the market today?

To reply to the original post, the names will vary between manufacturers, for example Sony uses X-Black, Dell uses Tru-Bright or something like that.
They're generally called glossy screens, but the exact term will vary.
I like the glossy screens too, very nice.
Hope this helps.

God at this rate I'm going to have to go into a shop and pay the extra.

You could always go to the store and write down the model numbers of the monitors you like and then search for similar ones online.
