With digital photography do you think the need for light meters with strobes is being eliminated?

Perki88 asked:

I know I can get my light ratios for portraits with a grey card or a zebra card and can fine tune when shooting tethered to a laptop with the program I use. Currently I am only usig my meter to get me in the “ballpark”. How has digital effected your use of your meter?

      For anything other than snapshots think strobes are sexier.
