Is it possible to run Java-GUI programs under Dos systems

I was surprised if there is any way to run Java Swing or AWT under a DOS operating system, like freedos. Is there any other way to run a Java GUI under DOS?

There was a port of Kaffe for DOS, but it could only run headless (without GUI). So I think the answer is no.

This claims to have some GUI functionality, but very slow! http://sourceforge.net/projects/jaguid/

Not exactly DOS, but you can try Charva which is like 'ncurses' for Java ?

There was a VM for DOS called JavaPC. It was discontinued a long time ago though and this is the only reference I can find.
