Meg is a notoriously simplistic drummer. It's fairly obvious that you meant technical skill... (you can argue semantics all you want). If anything, Meg was the perfect drummer for Jack, and (like Stu said) it suited the music.

EDIT: Oh, and I saw a few people mention The White Strips' debut album as their favorite, and I have to say that it's mine too. I love the garagey/under-produced aesthetic of it all (not to mention it feels more energetic to me than their later releases).
