The NeHe tutorials are good, though they assume you have some experience with C/C++. If you don't have that coding experience, you'll want to brush up on that at the same time (sorry, I don't have a link to a favourite C/C++ tutorial).

As far as books go, I used to like the OpenGL Superbible, and it looks like there's a new edition on its way! :)

  3. Francis s Hill, "Computer Graphics using OpenGL".
  4. OpenGL shading language (aka "Orange Book")
  5. NVidia OpenGL resources.
  6. And you might want to take a look at OpenGL reference manucal ("Blue Book")
