AD Group Policy local admin group WinXP

I need to create an AD group "Select Local Admins" in which I will place user accounts that will be able to admin their own machines.
Once created, I intend to deploy a GPO to all machines, that will delete any  single accounts not in that group (Domain admins, Helpdesk groups will remain)
Whilst not 100% foolproof, the best solution i can think of is to add to "Select Admins group"
Username
&
dedicated workstation hostname

The condition will be that if the user AND their workstation are listed in the group, they will be granted admin rights.

How do I achieve this?

Yes - end users are to have admin rights on their workstations. The idea of adding their computer names to the group is to ensure that they are only allowed admin rights on those pcs (and those others in the group - this is unfortunate, but an acceptable risk)
Will your above solution meet that criteria?
