It sounds like the fonts are being anti-aliased.  Try using 9 pt or 10 pt Monaco as your font, and fiddle with System Preferences -> General -> Turn off text smoothing for fonts sizes x and smaller.  I believe that the 10.2.x Terminal also has a preference for turning anti-aliasing off within Terminal.
