Its does for a lot of jobs I am afraid and places like Google do seem to like elite universities.

Also Ox-bridge along with Bath, Imperial and Queens (British telecoms Belfast engineering Center used to get the pick of those) do have a rep as being the best universities for CS.

Eatons where the thickos go :-) Years ago when Mum had had a stiff Gin she commented if we had stayed in Birmingham she would have tried to get my grandfather to pull strings to get me into King Edwards (Tolkien's Old school) which along with The Oratory (Tony Blairs school) are considered the top 2 schools.
