Money? Mark Shuttleworth's that is
Couldn't resist replying. Mark Shuttleworth was recently in Bangalore and I attended his talk at the Yahoo Office. He talked about Ubuntu and his trip to the Mir Space Station. He paid the Russian Space Agency 25 Million Dollars
  to hitch a ride to the Mir.

  He got the idea about Ubuntu while he was doing social service in South
  African schools. Overall a great speaker.
