MIT is openscourcing its course materials
http://ocw.mit.edu/index.html
I highly recommend Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs by
Harold Abelson and Gerald Sussman... (and not just because Gerald Sussman
invented Scheme with Guy Steele)
http://swiss.csail.mit.edu/classes/6.001/abelson-sussman-lectures/
I finished downloading all 30+ gigs of the SICP lectures by Abelson, I'm
probubly going to compress them to .mov and put them on a DVD with the
textbook in html format if anyone would like a copy I can bring it to the
rlug party in december
