So my question is, is there some way do determine via kickstart, what to install on that machine based on some criteria, possibly the IP that's being assigned to it, or MAC address, or something ...
If you just want to use kickstart, it would be pretty simple to serve these via HTTP, and have a simple script in PHP or similar that takes the requesting IP and uses it to choose which version of the kickstart to serve.
I would suggest that the "right way" would be to kickstart all your machines the same way, and then use a configuration management tool (like Puppet or Chef) to customize them. This approach is likely to be more work, but also more maintainable in the long run.
