Rich,
If a computer gets an option from the DHCP server that it has no knowledge
about it will just ignore it. However it is best practice if you want to
apply some settings only to some PCs to make use of User Classes. Define a
use class and assign the clients you want that class. Then make the option
changes for that class only. This way everything is "cleaner".
Cheers,
