Why??  Because, In this case, the GUI is entirely -un-necessary-.  The user
doesn't have to do anything other than stick the flash drive in the USB port.

The machine does everything else.  *WITHOUT* any further user intervention 
required.

Why bother with the GUI, when there is no inter-actiona required?
