New to Java

laugh as I write this post...it's hardly a "new topic."...but everything seems set just as it should be...

Okay...I'm a seasoned programmer in every language but JAVA. Here's the issue...every time I try to use the Core Servlets book/website by Marty Hall and Larry Brown I get hung up on the packages. This time, I downloaded and followed step by step what the website said to do...it was even preconfigured for me! Alas...I am getting the following compliation errors on a "simple packagless" program with NetBeans:

Any ideas (excluding the one that maybe I should let my hair grow out, put on some tackey shorts and sandles and start palying an instrument in the streets of Austin for living?)
