[texhax] difference between tabular and tabularx?

[Paul Tremblay]

Could someone explain the major differences between the tabular and
tabularx environments? I looked at the documentation for the memoir
class, but the examples and results seem so similar that I don't know
why I shouldn't just always use \tabular and \tabular*.
