I think it's pretty obvious that often tables are better and more intuitive to use for layout than CSS. The problem is that we've been told for so long that tables for layout are bad that it makes one feel kind of dirty using them. Web page layout should be simple it shouldn't require months/years of experience to work around CSS limitations and browser quirks to get some text and pretty pictures to display right. Sometimes I spend (waste) hours working on a CSS layout because it makes me feel clever, but lately I've been shrugging my shoulders, going the easier route, sending an invoice and moving on :)
