What's good for the goose

I discovered last night that Microsoft's web servers display an error for the URL http://www.microsoft.com/.net. Now, I may be a bit demanding but don't you think that a company like that should support tacking ".net", "office", "visualstudio", etc. to their base URL?

As a side note, using any additional path element that starts with a "." causes the same error. Requesting http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio and others provide a reasonable error page that at least allows you to search on the site.
