LG X120 Looking for an Identity in ‘Whatchamacallit” Contest

LG’s new X120 model has got its fair share of features, but it lacks a serious component to any good computer.

Sadly, the LG X120 doesn’t have a name. The positive behind this disastrous situation is that we get to pick it.

LG is holding a “Whatchamacallit Contest” in which Canadian participants have the chance to enter and then vote for the name of the laptop. The current 9,000 submissions have been divided into different categories (Most Popular, Most Stylish, Most Creative), each with a prize.

There are only 2 days left to enter your title for the unidentified computing object (U.C.O…clever).

Don’t delay, name today!
