You most likely have a NIC with hardware checksum capabilities; tcpdump sees 
outgoing packets before the hardware generates the checksums.  You can 
double-check by sniffing the traffic from a laptop connected to a monitoring 
port of the switch, or put a hub in place for testing so that the laptop also 
receives the traffic.
