This is something I never explored. I always went with the assumption
that tables were the best way to lay out my page (as is evident from
my site). I just gave a try to using divs and I get your point; the
code looks much cleaner. The nested tables are a nightmare in
comparison.

I guess the main reason is that I (and probably many amateur webdevs)
learn HTML from "24 hours" primer tutorials, which show tables as the
way to lay out pages. My bad for not having looked deeper. Never too
late eh :)
