I'm curious as to if anyone can back up this story? The site that the OP links to also covers stories involving the paranormal and conspiracy theories (eg. its a crackpot site).
The powerpoint presentation, which I believe is still available at:
http://www.donkeyonawaffle.org/OMB%20briefing%202008%2001%2011%20a.ppt ...displays an image that is watermarked to www.andovercg.com.
Andovercg is a used equipment reseller. It's my guess that the picture was originally a side by side comparison of two cisco router revisions. (ever had to work with 3com 3c905s? They've changed dramatically between revisions as well)
If I blow up that picture I can make out the following numbers on the model tag:
Left: 2461 8792 A
Right: 2461 8797 A
I believe the 2nd number is a revision number, which explains the difference in the appearances between the two boards. That's just my best educated guess though, I'd love to hear of an interpretation from someone that actually works with these boards.
Don't believe everything you read to be true...unless its backed up and verfied. This story, while more elaborate than most, fails to convince me its true (not to mention its hosted on a conspiracy theory website)
