IPS as Larry has already said, there are other technologies that will
give as good results but they are not as common, and tend to be more
expensive, and wide gamut, unless you're willing to put up with less
than the entire RGB color space. You might also look for Adobe RGB
support, though that's probably less important. TN will work but
depending on the implementation and lets face it most are as low
quality as they can get away with, there will be color shifts, sometimes
radial color shifts from different viewing angles.
Personally, I don't think that 4K gives you that much for the additional
cost, unless you're doing super critical work. Hell right now I'm
limping along on my backup monitor, or more properly, one of my two
backup monitors. It's one of the better implementations of TN that I've
seen, and it's at this point very old, it just seems the older
technology lasts, my much newer "better" LCD monitor, simply crapped
out, and it's cheaper to replace than get repaired if it could be
repaired at all.

What buzzwords do I need to check off?
Needs to be Windoze7 compatible. I expect I'll also need a new video
card to drive it, so anything you want to add about that would be
welcome as well.
I'm looking for something in the 32" range. It will be used 99% for
Photoshop since I don't do any gaming on that computer.
