graphic tablet or pen and paper..?

As promised in my last post: here is a comparison of two similar drawings. The one on the left was done using a graphic tablet and the one on the right was done the old school style - with pen on paper, later scanned. Even though the subject and style are quite similar the difference in detail and line quality is apparent. I still can't bring myself to say that one is better than the other because for me it all depends on how, where and in what circumstances the work is presented.Which one do you prefer?
