In his defense, how good do you think the Linux install on a USB device sold by someone who won't even admit that's what it is will be? I am willing to bet that the person starting that up (assuming they can figure out how) is going to be faced with a very restricted environment which doesn't have drivers preinstalled or packages updated because that would take time. Nor will any of that be automatic because installing new things will fill up the tiny USB drive and the user might return it in time. They need it to look like it works long enough for the return window to close.
