This may answer one of my questions as well.  Does this imply that there is no way
to create a startup splash screen for an application?  I tried extending the
Window class myself, but it didn't seem to like what I did.. I ended up staring at
an illegal operation.

I had thought I saw some Java based applications that used splash screens..
HotJava, for example, unless I am wrong in assuming that HotJava is written in
Java.

Thanks for any assistance or information.
