It's always the diagonal - makes the numbers look bigger. They also
measure the tube size, which will be bigger than the area of the screen
occupied by the picture...

====================================

HOWEVER, on plasma/LCD the diagonal is as listed, so a 27" set is
27"
diagonal viewable.
BUT, when using projection from a projector to a screen, the width of the
white (viewable) area defines the screen size, so a 6' screen will be 6' (+
borders) wide.
