I interview most of the job candidates that we get at Justin.tv for technical positions. Once you get to the point that I see you, what degree you have doesn't matter at all. For most candidates, I never look or ask about their education.
I used to, but the correlation between education history and hirability is weak enough to be useless to someone in my position. I think that most of the employees that are evaluating resumes feel about the same, as well.
What's important to us is whether or not you can actually write code and reason about computer science problems; what path you've taken to get there doesn't really matter.
