Brief from client
Modern, Simple, Icon representing technology
Logo for a Technology expo at my college. The Expo showcases technology for the classroom, workplace, and home. Also holds a contest for the highest PC performance.
I felt that a computer would be the best choice for the Exposition, despite it being a cliche icon. The computer vector could be used in many ways to represent different activities within the Expo. For example, a pencil inside of the monitor for something having to do with the classroom, or a word document vector if it's related to the workplace, etc.

I really like it, although not sure if it's just me, but I read 'texpo' and I know it says 'techxpo' but the words pushed together like that made me read it as texpo. Maybe that's just the client spec though?
Thanks! And yeah I think that's the intended purpose of the text. It used to be Tech Expo (if I remember correctly) so I guess they figured it would just be better read as Texpo or Techxpo.
As you yourself mentioned, it's a cliche icon. It's not unique so less interesting and may not survive in the next expo. Looking at your brief: "classroom, workplace, and home", I would imagine something more vibrant, more community oriented logo.
Draw a mascot or symbol that relevant to your area or college is another idea. good luck.
I agree with ceepie. It needs to be more flexible, as you said, its for classroom, workplace and home .. It needs to be more 'friendly'.Right now I'm seeing-> white lab-coat, straight face w/ glasses, gelled back hair-do
