I hope you have the bandwidth :). I would create a new Org Unit. for this installation - Add the clients that you want to receive this update to this unit. Create a new policy, we'll call it Win2kSP3. Make sure your other policies are not blocking this new policy from being applied. Also make sure the update.msi location has proper permissions so the users can not only see, but access the msi. You might want to rollout to a group of 10 or so to test time to install and bandwidth concerns.
