It is cleverly done in my opinion.  The whole thing is design to allow 
them to make money if you get the base OS for free from a manufacturer 
of hardware, and then they resell to you proprietary software add-ons 
and other things with their easy to use click-and-run update software.

There are lots of clever little things in it.

They are even nice enough to give me some money to help with finishing 
reiser4, which I much needed.  (Which make me not objective....)
