Do not use tables for layout.

Use CSS.

Especially now that Microsoft, just this week, is sending out IE 8
which
seems to be fully CCS standards compliant.

Your high horse--get off of it.
Dude! Did you read what I wrote? I wrote do not use tables for layout!
Are you not familiar with "div-itis"? If I need to represent data in a
grid-style layout, I am going to use a <table> every time instead of
making tons of <div> elements and tying them into the appropriate CSS.
It you have tabular data to present, use HTML tables! That is what they are for.

But use CSS to format the table.
Finally, just because IE8 is (supposed to be) fully CSS standards
compliant doesn't mean anything for IE7, IE6, IE5, etc.
Microsoft is pushing IE 8 with their bug fix process.

Not a bad idea to include a little JS to warm users with <IE8 to upgrade.
