Other than that it can't be used as a tv right out of the box, there is no difference or almost no difference whatsoever.

LCD=Liquid Crystal Display, and TFT=Thin Film Technolygy.
we usually call the lcd monitor is TFT LCD.
the major different between TFT LCD TV and Computer Monitor TFT LCD is screen brightness. LCD TV's back light is supported by much more lamps then computer lcd monitor.

LCD TV has embedded ATSC tuner.
A monitor doesn't, you have to buy external HDTV tuner.
