This is reasonable idea, but there's no way to know beforehand if demand 
is going to outstrip supply. If it doesn't, then it would be a bad move 
to set some arbitrary time limit. If one guy wants to hog a terminal for 
5 hours straight when there's 8 left unoccupied, he should be free to do 
so. If there is an extraordinarily high demand, *and* a bunch of people 
are hoarding terminals, (either of which are unlikely, even moreso in 
combination) then we can look into a solution for it at the con.

Potential scenarios such as these are the reason we'll have tech 
volunteers on call during the day. Remember also that this is GLLUG's 
first time running a computer lounge at a con and it will definitely be 
a learning experience.
