Seriously, I could go through my portfolio and make a copy of every single design and change the doctype on the copies. They'll all look exactly the same.

Example;
Code:
<table>
 <tr>
   <td>&nbsp;</td>
 </tr>
</table>
&

Code:
<div style="position: relative; top: 0px; left: 0px; height: 100px; width: 100px;"></div>
No matter what doctype is applied to either of those, the end result will look EXACTLY the same. I'm willing to put money on it.
That's a very simplistic example... start floating some divs, add margins and padding and lists within them.... and then see if the DOCTYPES make any difference.
