Getting 2 different G code formats from 2 computers on same toolpath and part?

So I have been using the desktop to make the CAM file, then downstairs to laptop to use such file. It works nicely.  Now tonight I tried to build the CAM on the laptop.  It did weird stuff, large circular paths. I notice the file text is quite different (not that I am some expert at Gcode, but see below)  The units are both MM, not a unit error, and the laptop version does not work with my Gcode controller.

OK, I solved it. The post configuration selection was different on the laptop. I guess my lack of awareness of that selection and the fact that I thought the standards were in the cloud and self updating, led to my oversight.
