help designing GUI
Hi,
I am designing a GUI which actually consists of following stuff:
A progress bar !
A bar changing dynamically (shows CPU consumption rate)
power meter(shows CPU throughput/occupancy of CPU)
Few other stuff also, but basically, how do i do it in JAVA? what do i need to learn? and where do i start?
I would appreciate any help..thanks in advance

Starting of with a simple text editor and compiling from the command line has it's advantages, but you could start straight away with a full blown IDE like Netbeans or Eclipse (which I prefer).
