To the best of my knowledge the color of the stickers that are on the
boards don't mean anything. They are just an indicator that the board
was flashed with a good firmware. These were added about a year ago
when we were resolving the nvram issue in the firmware, and these
denoted that the board was flashed with a version of the firmware that
didn't have that specific issue.
