Yeah but that's because Swing (and everything else as well come to think
of it) is in the class library which is stored in the java run time
directory rather than it being linked into the app.

The java runtime is 70MB btw.

For some bizarre reason, I've got 600 Mb of different Java runtimes on
my machine, even though I've only got one Java application installed
that I use. God knows where the rest came from.
