Put your design hats on

I would keep DHCP on, as it makes adding/removing computers. You can also set the router to keep the addresses a certain amount of time before it rewnews them.

worker201:
Well, I see your point about openness and maintaining modularity.  But at what point does it become ridiculous?  I mean, I will not be adding any computers to this network.  I have 2 laptops right now, and the most that I would ever want to run would be 3, but that's not financially plausible at this time.  Even if I did get a new one, I would just set it to 192.168.1.103 and be done with it.  Allowing for infinite expansion seems kinda silly when finite expansion isn't going to occur.

Lead Head:
I'm just saying, on the many networks I've used/worked on, I've never had a problem with leaving DHCP on
