      java version "1.3.0"
      Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.0-C)
      Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.0-C, mixed mode)

      If a JCheckBox has to represent a group like in installation where the group
      have more then one item in the list and if few items are only selected in the
      list. Then just the checked or unchecked state of the JCheckBox does not make
      sense. Usually in Microsoft product this state is represented with the gray
      background of the little rectangle of the CheckBox.
      In JCheckBox we do not have this capability. We can override the class
      CheckBoxIcon to change the background color of the rectangle but that will have
      effect on all the Checkbox in the application. There should be a localized
      method in the JCheckBox which can change the background color of the little
      rectangle just for the instance.
