No that's not the case. But as someone who sucessfully graduated with an engineering degree in (computer science) in a pretty tough program with a good GPA here's what we DO need:
-Professors who update their assignments more than once every 5 years
-End the practice of using bad textbooks either because the book comes with assignments for Profs. or Profs themselves wrote them and excuse their own mistakes
-Degree programs where teaching and keeping students interested is required, not just a "lets get through this" so the prof can go do research.
I had a similar issue where I got a Master Boot Block Virus from bad files. This happened on an old laptop that was used exclusively for download. And for those idiots who believe that people only steal on P2P, I was downloading live house music when has caused me to go BUY numerous CDs'. I would have never heard this music because commercial radio sucks!
Dell replaced the drive because it couldn't be recovered. Maybe Dell should send the bill to RIAA.

the drive couldn't be reformatted at all. Dell and I tried 4 or 5 times. crapped out each time.
