When trying to resolve this in DOS, below:

C:\>nslookup mircosoft.com
Server: ns.doesntmatter.tld
Address: 123.123.123.123

Trying to resolve the same name on a machine running SunOS.

Non-authoritative answer:
mircosoft.com nameserver = dns5.cp.msft.net
mircosoft.com nameserver = dns4.cp.msft.net
Authoritative answers can be found from:
mircosoft.com nameserver = dns4.cp.msft.net
mircosoft.com nameserver = dns5.cp.msft.net
That's because the domain exists in the DNS system, but the host "mircosoft.com" doesn't have an individual A record. In fact, there don't seem to be any records at all. Obviously, the sole purpose of the registration is to prevent other people from registering that misspelling.
Server Name: MICROSOFT.COM.WILL.CRASH.IN.6MN.ORG

It gets much worse.
