I've gotta throw these two DIY options in to the mix. The supercat alcohol stove made from a Fancy Feast can is crazy light and boils a couple cups of water in less than 10 minutes: http://jwbasecamp.com/Articles/SuperCat/
The hobo stove will use anything you can find for fuel, including alcohol or wood: http://www.ultimate-ultralight-backpacking.com/hobo-stove.html There may be better instructions than that around. It's less efficient but more flexible. I've never found either of these to leave scars on a picnic table, but I suspect it is a possibility.
