  IMHO:  si, no, depende, quizás, a veces, tal vez,  Un copy/paste del artículo:

..... "As a result, the resolution of dotless domains depends on local
configuration such as the search list. For example, in a location
where “example.com” is included within the search list, the URL
http://printer1/ will generate a query for “printer1.example.com”,
whereas in a location where “example.net” is in the search list, it
will generate a query for “printer1.example.net”.

This behavior was developed in the DNS precisely because most users
entering single-label names want them to be resolved in a local
context, and they do not expect a single name to refer to a TLD.
".....

  Es decir, si en mi OS tengo en el search list tienen algún sufijo en
la configuración DNS, digamos lacnog.net y solo coloco http://cocacola
 el OS intentará cocacola.lacnog.net

Alejandro,
