Not so much 'brainwashed by MS' as brainwashed by the typical Irish
attitude of 'Get in, get the grades, get the degree, make the money'.
The vast majority of Irish computing students aren't actually all that
interested in computing as a subject (or as an art). They've either
been mesmerised by the potential money they could be making, or think
it'll be easy and fun. Very few computer courses in Ireland encourage
them to rise above that.
