This is the site that convinced me that CSS could do everything I needed, and that tables were best suited for tabular data.

Every variation uses the same html for the content, but a different style sheet for the rendering. The tradeoff is often classic xml code bloat as people wrap everything in <div> tags that are used to help with layout, but don't offer much insight to actual content. The other tradeoff is Explorer, which has the worst standards compliance but the largest market share.

There are still a lot of cases where tables are very useful and needed though.

For example: Tabular data?

I think the days of tables and 1 pixel clear gifs for spacing are gone (or most designers wish them to be) now that CSS support is getting better.
