Windows provides several groups that you can use for specifying user rights. In your case, I would think that you can use Administrator and Power User as groups.

As you may know, Administrators have full control over the system. While Power Users can manage local accounts, and a limited amount of other system rights.

I suggest you assign John as a Power User and Mike as an Administrator. You could still limit Mikes Administrative rights anyway, by using Security Policies.

Best of luck.
