A:
It depends on what you want. They are different ways to render a table with different visual results. Check out this article for an illustration.
separate is the default.
Support for some border-collapse settings is incomplete in IE. See the brilliant compatibility table

why eric meyer added `{ border-collapse: collapse; }` in his CSS reset? What's the purpose?

Half the point of a reset is to set all the spacing to 0, you couldn't do that if you left the spacing between table cells.
