Only problem with Eclipse is that it uses a non-standard GUI lib.  This
sucks because you can't integrate AWT/Swing apps into the IDE like you
can with Netbeans, because Netbeans uses standard AWT/Swing.

For example, say you have an existing Java GUI app.  You can easily make
it into a plugin for Netbeans.

With Eclipse, you can't.

See

http://java3d.netbeans.org/module_intro.html

This is a standalone Java app, as well as a plugin.

I'm sure there are many other standard Java apps that are made into
Netbeans plugins.

With Eclipse you have to re-write everything, and get less portability
(does not run on OS X where Netbeans does).
