You probably won't be able to connect to a computer unless your 8se has been aligned. However it won't need an accurate star alignment unless you want to drive the telescope from the computer and see what you have selected.
For example I can do an auto alignment and accept the points the telescope finds while the telescope is sitting on the floor beside me and Stellarium will connect and drive it.
Regarding Stellarium you can reduce the computer use by setting

minimum_fps = 18
to minimum_fps = 4
in the config.ini file
