Yeah, I spend a lot of time staring at the "Player X taking turn..." screen. Sometimes I read a book or magazine while the turns are processing. I tried doing other stuff on the computer like reading this forum, by using ALT-TAB to switch to another program, but sometimes SEIV crashes when I do this so I no longer attempt that.

I used to play SEIV on a Pentium I - 233 MHz and it was SLOW! While I wait for the turns to process I'd eat meals, take showers, brush my teeth, make phone calls, do all sorts of stuff. Last year I upgraded to a 800MHz computer which I'm using now, and it's much faster (compared to before). But I'm hoping to buy a more up-to-date machine by the time SE5 comes out next year.
