1)  Maybe Boba stayed on as a retainer for Jabba.  After all, if the
money's right, then why not do it?  I would assume that I took way less
then 6 months to reach Tatoonie (more like a day or so).

2)  The manuever on Tanabb.  Well, it could have been done something
that he did long ago.  The only reason he was given the rank of General
was because he was in charge of the attack on the Death Star.  Think of
George Washington, one day, he was just General Washington (he was never
in the military before the Revolutionary War)...

3)  Does Darth Vader need a rank?!?

4)  Somewhere in the past.  Who knows who taught him.  I think that the
enigma behind him is what makes him so neat.

5)  Force Pikes.  The RPG describes them in detail...

6)  No, these were the same laser cannons that they use later in the
movie.  It's just that Han has it rigged so that he can fire them from
the cockpit in case of emergency, or if he can't get to the cannon well
in time.  (I read this in some of the novels, so it might not be canon,
but it is very logical).

7)  The A-Wing and the Y-Wing...

8)  Boba Fett.  And I wish that he said more then just "But he's worth
more to me alive then dead." and "Arrgghhhh" (lines from TESB and ROTJ
respectively).
