The trade off is between precision design and the wide variety of 
preferences users have in how they configure their browsers. What looks 
great to you based on the screen size, screen resolution, and browser 
settings you used during design and coding may look unsightly to people 
who have different monitors and browser preferences.

I use absolute positioning myself. No one so far has complained, but I 
suspect that the easier response from people who find your site (or 
mine) unsightly is to simply leave. I am actively considering removing 
absolute positioning in the next site redesign.
