$100 is a reasonable price to install Debian. But selling it later may prove tricky.
Actually not. As far as I know you can sell e.g. burned CDs. That should be legaly ok. (As far as the Software is GPL licensed)

It's an old troll: http://www.getacoder.com/projects/need_operating_system_4287...
Wasn't the one submitted to HN requiring a mere $100? Imagine that!? :) How nice of them to lower the prices they were going to pay the developer...
The best part is the ad for a book called "Successful Outsourcing" that I see on the page.
Old joke is old.

His way of finding a business oppurtunity seems to be simple:
Just find what everyone's using and build (or get built) another one like that to try and make a quick buck. These guys often dream of becoming billionaires with this idea. I confess that I too had such ideas when I was 14 (4 yrs ago).

Some dude in India took the project and now is trying to get someone to get the job done.
Priceless! ...well, actually, $100...
