Hey, I appreciate your thoughts.

Now, to "defend" myself...

I'm afraid that using a regular table wouldn't allowed me to create this pricing table as it looks now. Although this is called a "pricing table", I think using a table isn't recommended in this case as it is quite restrictive.

Also, I avoided using HTML5 elements like "header" because I didn't wanted to include an extra HTML5 shim (for older browsers) dependency.

Regarding using <b> versus <strong>, this could be a long discussion here :). I think <b> just fits in this case as I don't want to add any importance from a content or SEO perspective.

As an argument for using HTML5 elements like 'header', the only older browsers that don't support them are IE 6/7/8, and the shim is < 5 lines of JS you can easily throw in a IE conditional comment block.
