You're biting hard on the 'true scotsman' fallacy. Ask the linux developers where that gets them. Is it the year of the linux desktop yet?

  It would be if they bothered to create a single DE and did not have religious issues with driver issues, as proven by ChromeOS and Android. None of them have anything to do with lack of skill using Swing.

    ChromeOS and Android also have good looking interfaces. > None of them have anything to do with lack of skill using Swing. Can you name me 10 swing apps that look good? I can do the same for the web and MacOS. I'm not sure I'd be able to name 10 for windows, but I can name at least two.

      A random picked number to somehow win Internet discussion points I guess. Anyway, InteliJ, SwingUI Weather app, any app using Substance, Alloy, JGoodies or Synthetica theme libraries.

        > A random picked number to somehow win Internet discussion points I guess. No need to be nasty. I chose 10 at random because it's a decent sample size without being too onerous for an online discussion. If I wanted to earn internet discussion points, I would have made it 10,000. I'll take a look at those and get back to you. I'm very curious. Unlike some commenters (not a jab at any particular person or even a particular site, just a general observation of commenters online), I like it when I'm proven wrong about something. I'd rather know than live in ignorance.
