Analog, Digital, or both. Why?

RE: Analog, Digital, or both. Why?
I started all-digital, then went all-analog for a spell, and have now come to the happy compromise that for me certain scales/game styles work better in one realm or the other.

Example 1: I love 4X space games, but they are far too simple to be enjoyable on a tabletop. Those must be digital where the PC can handle all the bookkeeping for you and manage suitable epic and sweeping galaxies.

Example 2: Third Reich is a game that COULD be played on PC very easily, but I prefer to push cardboard. The bookkeeping is not overbearing and having that big global map spread out in front of you provides much more visceral impact than scrolling an LCD screen.
...came for the cardboard, stayed for the camaraderie...
