An odd question, sparked no doubt by too much free time, has entered my mind. Why does Mace Windu have a purple lightsabre?
I think I read somewhere that he traded with another Jedi-- but purple? Though I must admit it would take a great male Jedi to pull it off with dignity, purple is sort of a girl color, it goes aside from the beaten path that Lucas has established. In the first four movies we've only seen three colors: blue, red, and green. Why the sudden color change? Is it because we're going to meet so many new Jedi?
