CSS is great so long as you stick to a small number of heavily tested recipes. Stick with those and you're fine. Try to do something stupid like, say, build your own layout from first principles, and even if you spend the requisite day testing in multiple browsers and tweaking around the minor bugs, you'll still probably end up completely screwed because you've ended up relying on some property that one of the major browsers just doesn't support. Bastards.
The thing that was supposed to save us from tables is succombing to the forces of entropy....
