1987 Styles!
2001 Styles?

The computer room is where Strong Bad answers most of his emails. Strong Bad answered emails here until hremail3184, but he answered part-time job in Marzipan's kitchen for some reason. Strong Bad answered imaginary in his basement, then went back to the computer room for the Compe. Here is where the Floppy Disk Container is on a table, and Strong Bad still used Stooly in his basement. The desk appears to be some way from the wall as shown in most emails by the computer's shadow. Under the table is a power outlet where previous computers were plugged in, as well as an extra plug for additional electronics. Strong Bad once tried plugging a pair of 'Lectric Boots into this outlet, which consequently caused a power outage. Strong Bad has his newest computer, the Compé, on the table in this room.

On the far right side of the room, there is a window with an old sycamore tree outside. When the branches rub the window, they seem to say "Douglas." In pop-up, the ceiling of the computer room is shown to have recessed lighting, a fact which was previously stated in different town. Another custom feature of this room is the special light switch set just the right height for The Cheat. Strangely, the area beneath the light switches has no carpet. Mike Chapman makes fun of this oversight in the DVD commentary for techno, saying, "The Strong house has problems."

Also in no loafing, a picture of the computer room from 1987 is shown. The room sported an orange carpet and tacky wallpaper featuring pears and flowers. The wallpaper has since been stripped down and the walls painted blue, but the carpet remains, though it is now faded and unkempt. Also, as shown in the pictures above and to the right, some of it has apparently been removed from the room.

The No Loafing Sign hangs on the wall above the table, but it occasionally moves to different places on the wall. In most emails, it was shown to be to the right of the computer, while in no loafing, it was shown to be to the far left.

After the Tandy 400's explosion in gimmicks, Strong Bad passes 3 windows and 4 doors in midair, before crashing into Strong Sad's room. However, in little animal, Strong Mad chases Strong bad in a circle, and only one door and one window are seen.

In montage, the montage about The Cheat and the Wagon Fulla Pancakes shows the two in a room with the same walls and carpet as the computer room. In this shot, a window and door are visible and the wagon is sitting in a green recliner with a footrest.

Strong Sad turned this room into his Tai Chi space while Strong Bad was in Jail.

Its Old-Timey counterpart is Old-Timey Strong Bad's Telegraph Room.

It is a bit confusing, though, where the door is. In some Strong Bad Emails, for example, email thunder, the door is on the right. (Strong Bad could have jumped out the window, however) But in some other emails, and in Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People, the door is on the left.
