You're 100% right. I'm a Comp Sci grad and so a lot of the comments on this thread make me bork.
However what's right from my programmer perspective isn't necessarily correct for this industry.
Because:
* Re-designs are rare in this industry so maintenance of tables isn't considered.
* Tables work on the majority if not all of the target browsers.
* Bandwidth is cheap and fast on both the consumer and business side thus the speed advantage of css isn't considered.
* Javascript is seldom used on porn sites so advantages of using css selectors etc. aren't considered.
* CSS has quirks in browsers such as IE6 and IE7 that you don't have to deal with when using tables.
You get the job done and you get the product/service launched; if it works don't break it....but if you want to consider the future or you need flexibility then you should use CSS.
