flat technology monitor Last modified: Thursday, August 30, 2001

Often abbreviated as FTM, flat technology monitors are monitors that have a flat display screen to reduce glare. Conventional display screens are curved, which makes them more susceptible to reflections from external light sources. Do not confuse flat technology monitors with flat-panel displays. Flat-panel displays are the display screens used in laptops and other portable computers.
