If you dont' want the AI to do this, don't put comuters in the research queue I guess. The problem we were having was if you put computers in the research queue it still wouldn't use them unless you called for them specifically in the design. ANd if you called for them specifically in the design, it used them and the bridge, LS CQ comps.

This could cause money problems for some AI if they research computers too early in the game.

Thank you Geoschmo for this information.
So it is either always or never master computer for the AI. I doubt that this will help the AI because if he builds colonizers with master computers it will slow down the construction and therefore the expansion. Therefore as you said it is probably the best to avoud master computers for the AI at least till the late game.
