I found they didn't match on mine either, because of network card MAC 
address and other settings.
I compared them by first running hexdump on each image, then running 
diff on the two resulting files.
Large chunks were the same, and then some chunks were different, but the 
different chunks were all 0xFF or 0x00 in the downloaded file.
They were similar enough for me. :)
