This week I answered and asked what they wanted (as if I didn't know) and when they said "Is your computer getting slow to start?" I said No, my computer starts within Two Seconds. Cry of disbelief and asked for answer again. After several attempts the 'Innocent?' young lady said "I think you are playing with me" and hung up.
