LCD fuzzing up on lower rez.

This question must have been answered before... but i'm new to LCDs and i'm wondering if there are any LCDs that don't fuzz up on lower resolutions (ie. look like how CRTs look on low rez) or is this just one of those drawbacks of LCDs that can't be fixed? I have a Samsung 151s... looks horrible on lower rez games.
 
i'm not too knowledgeable about lcds, but i'm pretty sure that lcds all look less than great when run at a resolution other than the physical resolution of the panel
 
this occurs because LCD's have a very "low" resolution compared to CRT's that's because every pixel is in fact a micro circuitry containing 3 light emitters, this takes up a lot of space (on small scale eh)

you're lucky that your LCD resamples the image (using bilinear filtering) and doesnt use a nearest point scaling, the latter would give completely ugly and unreadable display ...


 
what Boran said. LCDs don't scan or interpolate and so they don't scale well. To the plus; they look terrific at default res!
