Well, speaking for myself I really don't like any sort of scaling except integer scaling of old low resolution games. I have my monitor set to not do any scaling and display lower than native resoluion with 1:1 pixel mapping, though if the resolution is low enough I'm pretty much forced to scale things just so things aren't too small. Even on my PlayStation 3 I notice when games don't use the native resolution of my TV (1080p). (And yah, I do have a few of less graphically intense PS3 games that manage to render at 1080i/p.) I do get used to the scaling when I'm forced to use it, but those are the times I miss my old CRT the most.
