CSS over Tables?

Hi, is using CSS really that much better than using tables?
I know that people tend to prefer CSS, but why is it so much better?

I find that CSS displays different in different browsers, so surely tables is better.

Well, if your CSS is well coded, then it will display always the same in every browser. The best thing about CSS is that, if you decide to redesign your site, you'll only need to edit the css file and not every html page.

CSS is the way to go.
Tables are looking bad and just shows that you are still not in the 21 century.
Tables should only be used to list content, but not for design.

previous : table = frameless, table better than frame. it's faster

now : tableless is better. Tableless = div/span, set by css, faster than table.
