You shouldn't use tables for layout. There's nothing wrong with using 
tables for tabular data though... This said, I can't make my mind up 
whether the data seen there is tabular ;) I think most would argue not 
though.

As for CSS, it works perfectly reliably, once you know how to use it... 
Getting a 3 column layout or anything more exciting than content, menu, 
sidebar is a pain unless you're more experienced with CSS, takes a while 
to learn the tricks for it. Then, unless you're a web developer, you 
forget how to do it next time you need to :3
