The Russian Kaspersky Lab has itself a shiny, new U.S. patent for a “hardware-based anti-virus system.” The basic idea is to run an anti-virus mechanism at a level lower than what a rootkit can penetrate.

The full patent description is as follows (hey, it’s one less click!):

An anti-virus (AV) system based on a hardware-implemented AV module for curing infected computer systems and a method for updating AV databases for effective curing of the computer system. The hardware-based AV system is located between a PC and a disk device. The hardware-based AV system can be implemented as a separate device or it can be integrated into a disk controller. An update method of the AV databases uses a two-phase approach. First, the updates are transferred to from a trusted utility to an update sector of the AV system. Then, the updates are verified within the AV system and the AV databases are updated. The AV system has its own CPU and memory and can be used in combination with AV application.

Notice anything missing in there, like, say, network access? A hardware anti-virus seems like a fine idea, but without the ability to update it it’s fairly worthless. That implies that it’s not a completely hardware-based system. Well, it is, but if I were to sell you an anti-virus widget today, what use would it be one year from now? You know what I mean.

At some point, at least as I read the patent description, there has to be a software component merely to keep the little guy current.

This reminds me—I think AVG is set to scan in just a few minutes. Can’t wait till my entire system freaks out. Bring on the hardware-based anti-virus.

Lost is getting ready to wrap up starting tomorrow. Thank goodness, right? But in case you’re one of the three people in the world that didn’t get caught up in the show but wanna check it out in all its high-def glory now, your time is coming in August when the massive 36-disc set drops. 36 discs!?! Wha?

The launch date is August 24, 2010 and the set will carry a $279 MSRP. Of course it will be crammed with all sorts of extras and directory commentary that no one but freaks will watch. I mean, who has the time to sit and watch each episode again with the director and J.J. Abrams rambling on about this and that? Oh, right, my fellow Michiganders. That’s who.

Tube or valve amplifiers are electronic amplifiers that make use of vacuum tubes to boost the power of a signal. They’ve been around for decades, and some audio freaks still love the sound they help to produce. And they look kind of pretty, too. Reason enough for Hanwha Japan to come up with the US-0498 [JP], a PC speaker that looks like a tube amplifier (but isn’t one).

Connect the simple 38mm speaker to your Windows PC (Windows XP/Vista/7) via USB 2.0 and you’ll get 0.35W×2ch sound with 45db max. It needs two USB ports. The four tubes will start lighting up in blue when the music goes on.

Sized at 125x 98x 80mm (weight: 220g), the speaker is available in black or silver and costs $25. It’s Japan-only, so you might want to contact import/export specialists Japan Trend Shop, Geek Stuff 4 U or Rinkya if you’re interested in getting one.

Poke fun at this vintage computer sale all you want, but it’s actually not that bad of a deal for the right person. Think about it. What you’re getting for only $60 is a near-mint IBM PS/2 Model 60. Hook this puppy up and record your life just like the original blogger: Doogie Howser, M.D.
