An LCD display of any kind is capable of displaying sharper images because it's done pixel-by-pixel. "Crispness" and "resolution" are two different things--the same quality of image shown on a CRT and LCD computer monitor will be cripser on the computer monitor, but may also reveal the limitations of that visual image, so people perceive the blurred image as "better looking."

It's similar to the way crappy guitar playing can be disguised by covering it up with a distortion pedal...same concept.
Oh I know why PS2 games look better on a standard CRT and why they don't on an HDTV. I was just letting people know how to make their games look better and get arid of those awful jaggies.

Believe or not, alot of people don't know anything about this stuff.
