Hi,
I'm following a tutorial, and somehow when I select the Run button, the UI
elements simply do not show up.

You may note that I have added the following method manually:
 public static void main(String args[]) {
  java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                new CelsiusConverterGUI().setVisible(true);
            }
        });
 }

Is this a bug?

Any ideas?  Has anyone encountered similar issues?

Environment
Windows Server 2008 64 bit
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_13-b03)
