Strange list. Some great stuff on there, but if I were going to attempt to substitute for an undergrad CS degree, I'd definitely have SICP on a list ahead of APL, for example. Of course, the whole topic is quite silly; if you really wanted to substitute for a CS degree, the easiest way to do it would be to examine (for example) the MIT course catalog, put together the appropriate course plan, and then order the textbooks used by those courses. And, with the video lectures and lecture notes showing up on OCW, you would actually be approximating (in a loose sense) the experience, provided one actually does the coursework and exams.
