I'm no expert on DNS but is it possible that the caching server your ISP uses has somehow obtained false information? If that's the case, it will probably be fixed shortly.

Edit: Oops, I didn't read the question correctly. I just now noticed that your laptop is using the same connection. I also tried to ping Microsoft, but I get a timeout as well (with a different resolving IP each time, always in the 207.46.x.x.x domain.), however I can get to it using my web browser with the host name. I honestly haven't a clue what's going on. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
