During a period when computing on a network is free, users can be very informal about choosing the computer for running their jobs. Certain issues usually dominate this informal evaluation---the convenience of entering jobs, the availability of attractive services, the reliability of the system, and the individual user's familiarity with the system's conventions. These informal evaluations are usually qualitative, but one additional, quantitative characteristic is often included---response time.
