4 wheel Alignment - Computerized or not?

I have heard conflicting reports as to the reliability
of computerized alignment vs. the "older style" machines.

A person here in town at a well known & respected alignment shop said the older style gauges/machines were more accurate.

Their price ($69.95) includes 4 wheel alignment, steering wheel centering and, inspection of steering and suspension parts that could negatively influence alignment.

Would anyone here - WITH EXPERIENCE DOING ACURA ALIGNMENTS - be able to advise as to advantages/disadvantages
of both?

I have a 2000 TL w/31,000 mi. & stock rubber.

Thanks
