    Of course this is all possible, Im not much of a swing or awt fan myself but it aint that hard creating a window/frame using Java.

    The timer should be fairly simple as you can use the java.util.Timer to create your self a timer and assign a TimerTask to be run after the specified time.

    Timer: Timer (Java 2 Platform SE 5.0)
    TimerTask: TimerTask (Java 2 Platform SE 5.0)

    There are other ways and means to do this as well, but I reckon this is a fairly simple example.
