Username bind to computername

According to the title, my question is really simple. Is there any way I can restrict a username to its fix computer. Actually in my network there are some SQL developers and they simply login with administrator on domain user PC's and I want to really restrict it. Because once they leave the PC and I have to rush again to login with actual domain user information.

In the account tab of the user in active directory users and computers you can use the

"Log On To" setting to restrict what computers that account can log on to.  

Thanks

Actually it is only one server in the company and those SQL developers are support providers for the accounting application we are using. Sometimes they need full administration privilege to install patches or setup on domain users computers and if I am not around, they simply log off and login through administrator username.

Once they are done, they leave the PC as it is. It has become a bit annoying for me and that is why was wondering if "administrator" username can be limited to the server hardware.
