Device rooted by Seller? My nephew parents had bought their son a new tablet, and while I snooping around his device and checked about tablet's information, I saw under kernel version option, it has:

root@tom-desktop #116


Does this mean the seller has rooted the device?
It is perfectly normal for a device (usualy import models from China) to have a kernel version such as "kernel version-- 3.4.0 root@tom-desktop#1" etc. and this has nothing to do with "rooting" a device. If I am not mistaken the "tom-desktop" is the default hostname when building a kernel.
