Erics solution is IMO the best practice. In fact, I (and other drupal developers) encourage this, and often advice people to not use superuser at all.

Rob,
I don't know if this is the best way, but what I do is create a new role called 'admin' or 'super user' (go to 'administer/access control' and select the 'roles' tab) and then grant that role privileges (the 'administer/access control/permissions tab) to administer some or all of the site. Then enable that role for any users who should have admin privileges.
