I highly recommend DHCP if you want to conenct your laptop to other
networks too. It's very easy to setup.
As far as DNS goes, I recommend doing what I do for my small network -
setup a caching only DNS server for you server (works out of the rpm) so
it get's good performance, and just use host files everywhere.
