Actually my point was less around the initial organization
of AD than around changing an AD design to accomodate short-term requirements. I
am all for the approach you've described below if it meets the administrative
and business needs of an organization.

It's easy when
not every Tom, Dick, and Harry can create
computer accounts. If
your org is really that large, you likely
already have OU's that either
follow geographic lines or
hierarchical lines. Sub OU's would contain
servers or workstations.
I cringe at the thought of a Fortune 500 with 30,000 computer accounts in one OU. Do companies really run that way?
