Yes, square waves can affect your speakers, but you'd have to have that played at over 100W for them to do damage - and even then only to your tweeters. Anyone looking to check whether their loudspeakers could be damaged by a copied cd could just play it a bit more softly first:P
I'm sure Sony must realize that the harmonics will end up being filtered to circa 20kHz regardless of the fundamental frequency of the square-wave frequecy.
From what I've seen, it really depends on the school. I'm currently a computer science and engineering major at UCLA. It's actually a modification of the normal computer science route here.
Essentially, the computer science and computer science and engineering tracks have the same course work for the first 2 years. It's only in the third and fourth year that there's some splitting.
In computer science and engineering, no minor is required. Those normal minor courses are replaced by electrical engineering courses. I believe that just about any of the courses that are required in the computer science major (such as artificial intelligence) can be taken as a computer science elective.
The other option here is a B.S. in Electrical Engineering with a computer engineering option. In this case, rather than take computer science electives, you have to take more electrical engineering courses, and a bit more math and mech and aerospace engineering.
As far as I can see here (and I maybe wrong), EE deals with sending information around via hardware, CSE deals with putting that hardware together and merging it with software, and CS deals with mainly the software.
I'm doing CSE mainly so that I have a better understanding of how the whole system works, not just the software aspect (though I am more interested in software than hardware). I find that CSE can allow you to later work more on hardware stuff or more on software stuff, whereas plain CS restricts you to software and EE restricts you to mainly hardware (assuming you stick with your undergrad and don't do your grad work in something else).

I hope I've made your day.

Is this really any different from /. doing movie revies? Last I checked, the MPAA weren't exactly saints ;)
