How to squeeze in more boardgame time?

Argh! No time or just leftover scraps of time here and there. How do I get more boardgame time in? Among other things, I am thinking of trying CyberBoard. It's designed to help with traditional board wargames.

One great thing about it is that the program and the gamesets are free. I might even be able to play by email. (Some solitaire gaming might be fun too.) Further, I don't have to keep the game set up. But of course, the social aspect of game playing will be missing. Some folks might think that's a small step from real computer games, but that is not what I am after really. Documentation on this tool is pretty scarce. The best I have found is here.

There is also ADC-2, which I also bought a while ago, though never really tried. Many commercial wargame manufacturers charge for their gamesets, so I might have to incur further costs depending on what game I want to try. Anyway, more after I have tried it.
