LCDs: WXGA, WSXGA, WUXGA??


What exactly is the difference between the different LCD types one can get when purchasing a notebook? I.e., what is the difference between WXGA, WSXGA+, WUXGA... and any of the other popular options? THanks.

The resolution is the difference.

Typically is goes as follows:
WUXGA = 1900x1200
WSXGA = 1680x1050
WXGA = 1440x900

And the W of course means they are all 16:9 instead of 4:3.
