Original Octane Door "O" Emblem

Original Octane Door "O" Emblem
Every picture I've seen on the Internet of an original Octane DOESN'T have the silver "O" badge that mine has on its door.
Any other Octane owners have that badge?  I wonder what its significance is. 
Perhaps because my machine is a dual processor? 
Maybe there was some promotional thing at SGI?
Thanks for any info on this that anyone might have.

Because that badge isn't OE

That appears to be an Oakley Badge!

Could be. The 90s were their heyday.
Though, nobody in the office I got it from was an Oakley fan, to my knowledge.
And it's not exactly a perfect match to the Oakley "O" since the top is too thick.
But, Raion is probably right, it's not OEM.
Whatever, I'm keeping it as is.
