According to http://www.thizlinux.com/eng/company/profile.html they are a 
Hong Kong Company with a primary focus on that market.  I wonder what kind 
of deal Fry's struck to choose this distro over a more mainstream one.

Pricing at http://www.thizlinux.com/eng/ordering/order.html looks a bit 
expensive for an individual-oriented distro.

Thiz Linux Desktop 6.0                  $188
Thiz Office 3.0                         $299
Thiz Server 4.3                         $799
Thiz Linux Desktop 5.0 User Manual      $118
Thiz Office 2.0 User Manual             $129
