    Anagrams --

    Here are two entries for the ex'cellent free Pci Express Graphics card. These entries answer the contest question (in ten words or less), and they are also an anagram of "PowerColor GameFX Radeon GT PCIe":

    --- I own ol' CGA! Romp to ex' free PEG card! ---
    Note: Hexus.net refers to these new cards as "PEG" cards. And "CGA" is the common name for the IBM Color Graphics Adapter, which first brought color to the PC. In graphics mode, it displays 4 garish colors in 320x200 resolution. Ugh! Misery.

    That anagram is direct, but I prefer my next one, because it's pun-y. <I hope you enjoy puns like I do.>

    This anagram warrants a little explanation. A "great RAGE", of course, refers to the line of ATI graphics chips marketed under the name RAGE, and this board's ATI chip is a great one, thus "great RAGE". Now take a phrase like, "in the heat of the moment" -- the thesaurus lists "rage" as a synonym for "heat", which this board produces plenty of. Thus this board serves double duty: as a great 3D graphics card, and as a toasty heater here in Minnesota, where we have long snowy winters. My computer den gets pretty cold, and I'd sure like to pop one of these bad boys in for some DOOM-3 roasting. Lastly, our postal service abbreviates Minnesota as "MN". And, "OX" is the internationally recognized symbol for ... hugs and kisses! Here is my anagram of "PowerColor GameFX Radeon GT PCIe", in all its quirky beauty.

    --- We pop great RAGE for ice cold MN! OX!!! ---
