This question may be a little off the list subject but you guys are some of the best 
authorities I know so I wanted your opinions. (Note the subtle butt-kissing)

Situation:
Single domain forest with single Exchange Server and total 4 DC. About 85 Employees. 
Class C IP block with fixed IP addresses for all. We are in the process of starting up 
a new venture company and want to keep them relatively separate from our main 
organization so as they grow, they can be easily separated if so chosen. We have our 
web presence under ourcompany.org and have reserved a domain theircompany.com for the 
new company's web presence. We have also set up recipient policies in Exchange to 
receive email sent to theircompany.com for the first couple users we have set up in 
our domain.

Question. 
What would be the best way to set up this new company in our AD organization to meet 
the requirements of easy separation in the future, while allowing us to continue 
serving them with our single Exchange server and with minimal additional expense and 
complexity.

We have been looking into the possibility of setting up a child domain for them so 
that they can have separate security and domain suffix but are unsure if we can do 
this without adding a subnet or some other complexity.

I appreciate any opinions or recommendations from the wise ones of the list (more 
butt-kissing).

Thanks...
