I'd use DHCP. Even with so few clients, it's a lot easier to control changes
& configuration from a central location. If you have salespeople who use
laptops, it's a lot easier for them too - they don't have to manually
reconfigure anything (note also that changing IP addresses requires local
admin rights, which are a whole nother kettle of fish!)
