Yeah, sorry, I did in my original post, and meant to mention again, but 
just clean forgot... The pause does affect both machines (whether mac 
OS or Windows). I actually put my XP box and Windows machines side by 
side, and the pause happens on both machines at exactly the same time, 
for the exact same length of time. The game does run during this time 
(ie. if a rocket is in mid flight, it's usually reached it's 
destination when the game resumes).

Curious that no one else is seeing this problem. I am using 10.2.4 
(can't remember if when i reported the problem i was using 10.2.3). And 
like I say, it happens both versus 98 and XP... What speed network 
everyone else on? All my cards are at least 100mb/s, but I only have a 
10mb/s hub, making everything run at this new lower speed. Maybe I 
should chuck a cross over cable between mac / PC... or is this no help 
either?

At any rate... yeah, sorry woody! Take the darn break! You do deserve 
it! :-)
