I am working on an application that currently creates a list of known hosts
(ip addresses) in an NSTableView. As new hosts are seen on the network, I
create a new entry.
I would like to change this so that when a new host becomes known, I create
a new NSView subclass for each host. The type of view I want to create is
similar to data displays I've seen in anime (please no flames heh). An
example would be:

The idea is that I would want pat of the view to be transparent, the border
to be circular, the ability to animate the border (e.g. show that packets
are arriving from that host by a flashing green 'led' in the border), and
handle events.
I hope the image gives an understanding of what I'm after. I know this is
maybe ambitious, but I wanted to make sure I started with the correct
superclass. I'm assuming this would be an NSView subclass. I didn't know if
I needed to use some combination of classes to create what I'm intending.
Any assistance is much appreciated.
