I guess your priority will be to your external Internet users. I would, if
that is the priority, to use the external address. You need tro make the
call on that one.

BUT... If you are getting another server, there's a NAT limitation that it
will only listen and forward to one port per IP. If the ISA is doing the
external stuff, you won;t be able to forward port 53 to your new internal
DNS. Unless of course, you use the ISA's DNS to handle external queries
only, and setup the internal DNS for your AD use and internal clients only.
On that server, you would create the www record and give it the private
address.
