Given the average intelligence of modern computer users, it is unwise to allow the most users more than two minutes of continuous access to a computer before being replaced by another user. Durations longer than this result in exponentially higher failure rates for the computer.

Additionally, current trends indicate this safe operating time is decreasing. This is most likely attributed to the increasing speed of computers and related systems, allowing a user to more quickly access things they most certainly should not and consequently causing damage.
