The Buzz: Hollywood has a new reason to be nervous: It's called BitTorrent, a peer-to-peer technology that uses a bit of technical wizardry to speed up downloads. The app breaks large files (like giant game demos or, say, the latest movie hit) into tiny chunks, which can be stored on users' machines across a network. When someone requests a file, BitTorrent identifies the constituent parts--on hard drives across the network--and sends them speedily to the downloader's machine..

None proved to be the clear front-runner. Rather, three of the solutions — the ones from Lindows.com, Lycoris and Xandros — proved evenly matched and ideally suited to replace either Windows or Macintosh systems with ease.
