I'm most familiar with Swing, and have never had the sort of itches that caused the creation of SWT... so I've never looked at SWT. That being said, I'm not wedded to Swing. I wouldn't argue FOR Swing, except if the alternative were AWT. I have no opinion, good or bad, about SWT. -- Get the model right, and the View can be easily replaced.
