I may pick one up and see how it works -- it is certain to ruin to the aesthetics of the room, but if it is effective in eliminating smoke seepage to other rooms, it may be worth it.

A fan blowing out the window will definitely keep the rest of the house smelling nice. You have to make sure you've got negative pressure in the room you're smoking in. With the fan going close the door and feel around teh gap at the bottom... there should be a slight breeze blowing into the room. As long as you have that you're golden.

Personally, I prefer to smoke outside. I could smoke indoors when I lived at home with my Dad but my room started to get smelly. Too many cigars in a small space. It gets real windy here but as long as you can find a little shelter it's ok. I also really enjoy a smoke while I drive, but I don't really have anywhere far enough away to go that I have time for a cigar. When I lived in NOVA I commuted all over Metro DC for work and that gave me plenty of opportunities, but not any more.
