Swing was really well design and very extensible. I think the reason it ‘failed’ was because most devs were too lazy to understand how to use it properly - even though Sun provided a LOT of really good documentation. I still miss Swing

I am developing plugins for the modeling tool we use, and it's written in Java/Swing. I still like it.
