in R2 you can have dynamic variables<http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn236351.aspx#BKMK_WhatsNew_Client_Deployment>
*Set Dynamic Variables*: This task sequence step gathers information and sets specific task sequence variables with the information. Then, it evaluates defined rules and sets task sequence variables based on the variables and values configured for rules that evaluate to true. so set foo=bar If SUPPORTEDMODEL = TRUE then set foo=bar1 so if foo=bar1 then use Auto Apply driver package instead of Apply Driver Package, just a thought...
