I am looking for a laptop with the newer lcd tech. that is 14" and is not widescreen. Does anyone know of a make and model of a laptop that fits that spec?

Gateway & HP have the trubrite in 15" XGA. I'm not sure about any that have it in the 14" Dell has the 600m with a 14.1" SXGA, but I'm not sure if that's comparable to the trubrite screen.

My Acer has a WXGA Acer CrystalBrite color TFT ( Short for Wide XGA, WXGA is a video resolution that supports a max resolution of 1366 horizontal pixels by 768 vertical pixels... ). Whatever that is.
You should look for at least SXGA ( Super Extended Graphics Array, a display specification that is capable of displaying 1280 x 1024 resolution, or approximately 1.3 million pixels.) Nowadays expensive notebooks use WideUXGA ( Short for Ultra Extended Graphics Array, a display specification that is capable of displaying 1600 x 1200 resolution, or approximately 1.9 million pixels... )

Again ... this is all the info I have:
VGA = 640 x 480
SVGA = 800 x 600
XGA = 1024 x 768
XGA+ = 1152 x 864
SXGA = 1280 x 1024
SXGA+ = 1400 x 1050
UXGA = 1600 x 1200
QXGA = 2048 x 1536

Fujitsu is the only brand I know of incorporating a transreflective (glossy) screen into a non-widescreen 14" notebook.

You could always ditch the 14" non-wide or the transreflective and have a LOT more options
