In addition to what GrandFather just said, <br> tags are considered bad HTML because they confuse structure and presentation. The reason CSS is such a good thing is that it allows you to completely separate your presentation (styles) from your markup (HTML). Having this separation of presentation and structure is good for maintainability. Anyone who's had to work on a website with lots of <font> tags can attest to that.
