putting an = in doesn't change the results I see but now i understand what is going on at least :)

Yeah, unless you put an = before whatever you want to show, actually does a wildcard match.  usually there's only one result, so the whois server returns that result.  If it returns multiple results, it returns a list, and you need to specifically query with = to get the result you want.

WHOIS contains both domain names, AND nameserver records.   So adding something to the 'microsoft.com<http://microsoft.com>' whois is as simple as adding a child nameserver to your domain. :)

what are we exactly looking here? I am assuming this is about all other subdomains that correlate with microsoft.com<http://microsoft.com> and not about microsoft.com<http://microsoft.com> itself right?

Hmm.. my calendar must be wrong - it doesn't say 1993.

This was old news 20 years ago. I'm not sure what you call it now...

Hi all,
mildly ammusing but just in case someone from microsoft is on list.
I suggest you run a whois against microsoft.com<http://microsoft.com/> [1]

Cheers

 We ran to the sounds of thunder.
We danced among the lightning bolts,
 and tore the world asunder
