What is a flat-screen TV?

Some advertisers are using the term to describe the new flat-glass TV screens, as opposed to the curved front we re used to. These screens offer a nice sharp picture. However, these are still traditional picture tubes and a 27-inch TV will be 23 or 24 inches deep. What most people are referring to when they talk about flat screens are the new plasma or LCD panels. These are 3.5 to 5 inches thick and available in different sizes. They also offer different benefits such as better off-axis viewing from plasma and no picture burn-in with LCD.
