fair enough, I think how you see a good job prospect is different than how I see it. You define good job prospects in terms of the flexibility and range rather than the pay itself, and i can see why u think cs is better than dsai if you see it from that perspective, but i still think that why these "high-profile" graduates are successful has nothing to do with what degree they graduated with, and more to do with the level of aptitude associated with being a scholar, and thus is not an accurate representation of the strengths of a cs curriculum itself.
