This afternoon was gobbled up by doing a parts swap on Cisco MDS 9710 FAB1. One of those hugely expensive enterprise fiber switches for fiber SAN's. Replacing the one of the fabric modules. Where the real work gets done. After pulling the assembly out I notice the below in the box. While I'm not a major conspiracy nut I certainly don't trust any of those nations who are "against" us. But this makes you wonder. I long ago lost count of parts boxes I've opened but they all usually had notices in English and Spanish. Sometimes French, This notice has Russian on it. A shipped part is core part of the MDS. A device used to handle Enterprise data management. Of a major US pharma company. Conspiring minds, at least one mind, want to know....

Typical Cisco for sure. Let me look around at work for you because my employer buys a LOT of Cisco stuff...

Found this...

This must be hundreds of them... I did NOT count!






Oh, oh... What's inside?



Looks like each of those envelopes is $939 and 8% tax... for essentially absolutely NOTHING but instructions to go on the Internet.
