Ew, um... is that your laptop?

Sometimes news is so awesome that you couldn't possibly make it up. Today's story is making my mouth and my eyes water, but more from laughing than the smell...

Computer company Asus, which is actually the 6th best-selling brand globally, has decided that overpowering cologne at the office isn't quite enough to kill off all of your scent receptors, so it's come out with a line of scented laptops. Oh, no, I'm quite serious.

Coming in 4 scents -- 'Musky Black,' 'Floral Blossom,' 'Aqua Ocean' and 'Morning Dew' -- the flashy-colored laptops are the newest varieties to Asus' range of other funky laptops, including models covered in snakeskin or gold leather -- for those days the standard silver plastic just isn't good enough.

Good news for us all -- once the scent of the computer wears off, it's gone, as the company has no plans to sell replacement scents, like the little packs on grocery-store shelves.
