schestowitz[TR2]                                        <p> In 1999, Shuttleworth sold his South African digital certification authority, Thawte, to Verisign, which paid $575 million. That gave him the money to fund a project, originally under nonameyet.com, to make a desktop flavor of Debian that was easy enough for non-technical people to use instead of Windows.
