Question: how do you run it on DREAMM? In my case, DREAMM cannot find "episodei.exe" and therefore cannot install "Behind the Magic".

Forget what the guy below me said. This is awesome.
I love Behind The Magic. It's the closest thing we have to a Star Wars version of Star Trek Omnipedia. I just wish they had re-released this on a DVD instead of dual CD-ROMs so you didn't need to swap discs. Otherwise, it's totally worth checking out if you're a fan of the Original Trilogy and early Expanded Universe. I just love skimming through the Expanded Universe section on Disc 2 and seeing all the different merchandise and tie-in material they have listed there. And the glossary is really good too. It has information on practically everything Star Wars related that existed up to 1998.

The title is misleading. There's nothing magical about the old Star Wars. It's pure nostalgia trip for old people who once were 7-10 year old. It should be titled: STAR WARS BEHIND THE CRAP: STEALING IDEAS FROM OTHERS AND MAKING THEM DUMBER. Funny thing is, that Lucas guy made a good movie once. It's called American Graffiti.
