I think the Enterprise could take out the Death Star, no prob.

With the exception of the actual wail-on-planets beam, all the weaponry in
the Star Wars world is aimed by hand, with possible help from a "target
computer".  How is anyone gonna aim and hit a ship traveling at warp speed?

The wail-on-planets beam, takes a long time to set up and fire, so that
could probably be taken out by one quick attack.

As with Battlestars, the little attack ships would be just mosquitos to the
Enterprise.

Actually, the only ship that the Enterprise wouldn't be able to handle would
be the Millenium Falcon.  :) :) :)

Or a flying Chrysler [from the Saturday Night sketch, with Belushi as Kirk
and Chevy Chase as Spock] :) :) :)
