I was wanted your opinions on table-based layouts in HTML.

My opinion is that it's convenient for permanent content, but it's a nightmare trying to edit the content later, as you have to re-size the tables and you have to watch out for content mixing in with each other.

Thoughts?
 
I usually create my designs with CSS without the use of tables, however there have been times when I've had to incorporate tables for statistics which was just easier to do.

I thought this article on Grids an interesting piece, although a bit dated, it still holds true.
