Most displays cannot change mode.  High quality computer monitors are
fixed mode.  TVs are fixed mode.  The multi-sync monitors are the
anomaly.  Those LCD displays aren't really multi-sync, the panel has
a fixed resolution.  But the brain-damaged pee-seas expect a multi-sync
monitor, so the LCDs add some sort of scan converter, which raises
the cost of the display, and for what?  So you can have a crappy
looking display if you aren't using the native resolution of the panel.
