Hey Guys, I have just joined this list and one of my first qustions for you guys is this: when developing a GUI application with java, is it better(keeping portability in mind) to use the java-gnome packages or the SWT packages? I know this has been asked before but this exact questions was not answered(I went through the archives). I am writing a small java application(http://jfortune.sf.net). I wanted to learn some GUI programming. I came across java-gnome and SWT. I wanna ask you guys which one of these do u think is better. I want to have the app run on both windows and linux. It will be pretty small but i still wanna learn how to make GUI's under linux. thanks

Soon after arriving, he became captivated by a beautiful coed and eased into a conversation with her by asking if she met many dates at parties. "Oh, I have a three point eight, so I'm much more attracted to the strong academic types than to the dumb party animals," she said. "What's your G.P.A.?" Grinning ear to ear, the jock boasted, "I get about twenty-five in the city and forty on the highway." ******************************************
