My computer lab smells like wood smoke because some of the smoke from my wood stove upstairs leaks down the chimney into my basement.

Our computers are in the main part of the house, so, it mostly smells like a dog and children, like the rest of the house...

If my computer wasn't in the house-house, I wouldn't use it nearly as much.

Rainbows and Butterflies. Which is exactly what you would expect a young man's bedroom to smell like.

Yes, mine is in my laundry room.  My home office (man cave if you prefer) is being renovated/repurposed so for now I'm right next to the washing machine.   Eventually I'll have my own space again but for now I'm on a temporary table with a pile of keyboards beneath it for rotation.  But I'm linen fresh at all times.

This, and coffee (usually).

There's a fuzzy pink cat bed beside my LCD, although she prefers to sit on my keyboard.  She likes noises, she has good taste in keyboards.

My computer room smells like... victory.

(...comes out of 'Nam flashback...)

No, actually it smells like vintage ABS plastic with a hint of solder.... and subtle notes of cellulose acetate. It's really quite refreshing. (but probably carcinogenic)

Grease, oil, transmission fluid, gas (not gas, butane), petrol, ozone, soldering flux, red wine (nice new world Shiraz). I should have just said complex or my ass.

My PC is on a galery within the main living room. So basically it smells like the rest of the appartment, which smells.... well depends.
Usually like the food I just cooked in the kitchen next to the living room below me or if the missus went all out again on the "room perfume" spree, then like one of those.
