I normally use a null layout and give everything an absolute size and position, which seems the easiest thing to do when you have a minimum window size to work with and you don't need resize-able controls.

I tried using a non-null layout once and the only thing I could get to look right with a handful of controls at different sizes and positions was a GroupLayout, though it's a bit complicated to get right.  I've heard this is what NetBeans does.
