That is BFL's laptop, not mine. The one I plan on using for the test is an HP that BFL has not seen/had access to yet.
So let me get this straight... you wrote all that stuff about compiling the code from source and about how the board and test machine didn't have any kind of internet connection, and then you neglected to mention that you'd used a laptop set up and provided by BFL which could've had a hidden wireless connection to anywhere. Did you even make sure that the binaries you were running actually corresponded to the source code you received, or did you use binaries that BFL provided too?
Neglected to mention it for what? We haven't done the test yet... How can I not mention something that hasn't even happened?

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.631047I don't know why it says 0. It wasn't a live test, so I wasn't too concerned, I was more interested in putting into a test loop to see what the power consumption was (which was 17.6W) - I took pictures of the Kill-A-Watt, but my flash blanked out the LCD screen of the Kill-A-Watt - I will get some non-flash pictures of it tomorrow or Sunday.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.631620The demo plan is that I will:
A) connect it to a non-routable development side of the pool, so that the box is unable to communicate with the internet. I will then let it submit shares to the pool and I will have one of the getwork servers in debug mode and I will see what is sent out and what's sent back. As I found no evidence of any wireless communications on the board, and since the computer it's connected to will not be on the internet, it won't have any way of falsifying the shares submitted.
B) I will take a unit home that evening, disassemble and take more robust pictures. I will NOT be removing any heat sinks, however.
C) I will do further testing that evening on my own with a packet analyzer to see what packets are being transmitted, when and where they are going and coming from.
That's the plan as of right now, at any rate.
So my plan was published after the first meeting and we haven't done a second, live test yet. So I'm a little confused as to what you are taking issue with?
