If you have ever purchased a Apple product (any Mac, iPhone, iPod etc.) then you would have probably smelled the new Apple smell, do you know what I'm referring to?

Anyone like it? I do! Its almost as good as new car smell!

It's toxic. Put it outside before you get cancer.

I don't have any new Apple stuff.
Does it smell different than other brands of electronics?

It's usually sort of a burnt smell because they have to bake the circuits so the solder melts and glues the chips to the motherboards.

When I bought a new iBook back in Y2K, it had an interesting smell that wasn't bad at all. When I got it repaired 6 month later due to a malfunctioning CD Drive, it came back from the repair place smelling like it did when it was new. --I don't know what they smell like currently, though.
