Maybe a little bit, Mihael.  Windows look and feel is kind of like
running 5250 in an emulator.  Better yet, through a TELNET application.
Some things are the same.  A few things are even a little bit better.
But it's not quite the same.

With SWT, things look exactly the same.  For example, a tree looks just
like a tree in Windows Explorer.  Input fields look exactly like they do
in a standard Microsoft Office application.

You'd have to compare the two to know what I'm talking about.
