I like the idea. The ones I've seen are focused on web development. Yes, if you want to be a web developer, they beat a CS degree certainly.
BTW though web development is a relatively easy branch of programming, and it's very learnable on your own. You could probably give yourself a similar bootcamp experience, this guy learned web dev from scratch and got a RoR job ater six months:

I'd be interested in any you find that teach meatier stuff - focus on tougher languages (C++ etc), algorithms and data structures, etc, please post it here!
