Besides featuring a few quotes from myself, the article The Java Performance Debate running on OSNews also features a quote about Desktop Java Live from Jasper Potts of Xerto:
"Swing itself is not slow, but that's not to say that it's that easy to write large applications that perform well. There is definitely room for some more articles on using Swing in the desktop... There is a real need for Swing books that tell you how to do things in the real world. [Desktop Java Live] is the first book I have come across that is trying to do that. Even all the books called "Advanced ...","Extreme...", etc., all they do is redo the Java [API] docs for the more advanced components. There are a few topics that just don't seem to be documented at all well anywhere like the Focus System."
