The main page of orbicon.org

Alright, I suspect this "m" isn't a puzzle/clue/anything. Here's the deal -

the page the OP is looking at is the "frames" page. Since frames are out of style, it defines there being one frame that takes up 100% of the page. You never actually "view" it. You'll notice that the title of the page is "Orbicon Corp." rather than "Orbicon Corporation." The PMs probably didn't think we'd view that page's source. But even if they did, the M appears to be insignificant anyway.

The M is likely one of the following:

a marker from the page design software they used
denotes the author of that page
indicates that the page is live and ready to be uploaded

and they simply forgot to take it out.

Here's the real question: why would they ever design the page with frames in the first place? They're entirely unnecessary here.

It's due to the way they put up Orbicon.org and orbiconcorp.com

They're the same website, but for some reason, instead of just re-directing, orbicon.org is a frame that displays orbiconcorp.com. I am guessing they were just too lazy to make it redirect.

Alternatively, "M" is code for "Mos is #1."
