It's hard to say whether Asus's F6 Scented Notebooks are stepping towards the right direction with their new "aromatic marketing." Don't let the Morning Dew or Aqua Ocean smells fool you, though, the laptops come fully-featured and customizable with a 13.3" screen, a fingerprint security scanner, and wireless-N technology. I just hope it doesn't smell like Axe spray deodorant - that stuff causes nausea.

No word on pricing though, so your noses will just have to wait!

This opens up a whole can of worms that no one manufacturer should want to deal with. What if the smell of dad's new laptop makes Junior a little nauseous? Can Dad exchange it for one that has a better scent or no scent at all? What if the smell wears off over time? Is it then considered defective? Can you "upgrade" the smell at a later date? Ugh. I feel so sorry for their tech support people already...
