I amnot sold on CSS just yet. It tends to load slower especially when over done. With tables its not so hard to get over done. 2 tables deep, rarely 3 and the pages load tons shit faster than CSS.

Some say CSS reads easier to SE, and I still have a hard time believing that as one looks under the hood of a css site, the character's go far beyond what the spiders like before it even gets a taste of content. Besides SE spiders to not generally count Table data as content...

Besides my clients enjoy tables and request them most often as it makes it easier for them to edit themselves. With CSS you trap a client who may not understand it as it is far more complex to make even simple changes to a layout.

Lastly CSS does not layout in all browsers as well as table sets do.
Tables took a long time for a final accepted cross browser compatibility and CSS still has a ways to go in that department.
