Free Java Tutorials

[EdSquareCat]

I'm looking to get a head start on Java programming before my class starts (in about 6 months). My school will provide me a textbook; it would be a waste to buy one now. Can anyone point me in the direction of any quality free Java tutorials? Thanks ahead of time.

I pretty much wrote a book of them:

Thanks, Sidewinder, I'll use that. Any others?
