sorry, guys, I take it back!!!
I came into the office today and found the network maps were up to their old tricks again! Question mark appearing between machine and switch, and some machines appearing at the bottom of the window with the caption "the following discovered device cannot be placed on the map".
back to the drawing board!
I still have the theory that somewhere in network land, there is some kind of "data traffic cop" that is manipulating data flow and causing these discrepancies...
Windows does love to keep us guessing!
