I like to use (and use to teach) both in conjunction and end up by seeing
them as more complementary than overlaping.
XSLT is good at defining the structure of what you want to present and CSS
at defining how the result of your XSLT transformation is presented.
That being said, I don't know if it's because of XSLT but I also deplore
the level of support of CSS in browsers (especially IE)!
