An application that has been running fine under SDK 1.2.2 lost all background
color after upgrade to SDK 1.3.0. Found out it has to do with the .setEditable
() method. Provide a simple code for demonstration, same code has been tested
on our old machine with SDK 1.2.2 installed. If this is not a bug, please show
work around. Thanks.

      testframe.setBounds(100,100,0,0);

      testTArea.setBackground(Color.white);
      testTArea.setForeground(Color.blue);
      testTArea.setEditable(false);

      testframe.add(testTArea);

      testframe.pack();
      testframe.setVisible(true);

      testTArea.append("\nI'm trying to set up a view only dispaly area\n");
      testTArea.append("with blue font on white background!\n\n");
      testTArea.append("This code run fine under SDK1.2.2, but not SDK1.3.0\n");
      testTArea.append("Is this a bug, or is there a workaround for it?\n");
   }
