Yes by all means play a PBW game. The only draw back is the time between turns. So more than one game is most often the cure.

I thank everyone for the responses. Since I posted the question yesterday I have downloaded TDM and am about 100 turns into a new game. The AI is indeed better, as I am into a series of pitched battles with the Colonials for the Qikiltrin system. I will proceed with this game to see whether any new strategies occur to me, then I will see you in PBW. Playing against human competition is always better, like the games of Risk I played as a teenager back in the '60s where we all actually had to sit in the same room. Oooooh, radical man.

I am looking forward to playing with you someday or another on PBW then.

(Or perhaps even in the King of the Hill League. Who knows?)

And hopefully, being in the same room as the other players is not needed for PBW, as it would be quite a problem in games such as the Galactic Combat series. (where no less than twenty players plot, scheme and conspire) *Smirks*
