If you were really a fan of Aaron, sure you'll miss him. If you have issues with a guitarist who doesn't run around constantly, flailing around, doing handstands, jumping on equipment, keyboards, etc. and stage diving at least once, sure you'll miss Aaron. That's Aaron's way of doing it, and I did enjoy watching him.
However, my vote is for Robin. There's a certain energy and prescence that he brings to NIN that doesn't require him to flip over backward to pull me in and keep me interested, or to put on a great show. I prefer his style of playing over Aaron's, and like some people have mentioned he really seems to feel the music when he plays. Also, I think his choice of movement and body expression are a better fit for NIN right now than the all over the place craziness that Aaron brought. In addition to all that, I've always liked Robin ever since I first saw the MOTP music video before I really got into NIN, as I just thought he just rocked. There's plenty more that I could comment on, but I'll leave it at that!
