I bet no one heard "Thiz Linux" before, but I just came across this news:
"(June 11, 2002, Hong Kong) - Thiz Technology Group Limited ("Thiz" or the "Group"; stock code: 8119) today announced the signing of a cooperation agreement with Taiwan International Business Machine Company Limited ("Taiwan IBM") to further expand Thiz's Taiwan business.
