Imho, 95% you will meet multithreading in Minecraft.

About AWT: "The reason is that AWT encapsulates asynchronous event dispatch machinery to process events AWT or Swing components can fire. The exact behavior of this machinery is implementation-dependent. In particular, it can start non-daemon helper threads for its internal purposes."

About java: "According to The Java™ Virtual Machine Specification, sections 2.17.9 and 2.19, the Java virtual machine (JVM) initially starts up with a single non-daemon thread, which typically calls the main method of some class."

IMHO, you can run console apps (like helloworld), but not expect gui.
