I did a similar thing when they called during supper time a month back. I strung them on for about 10 minutes before telling them my primary PC is a Mac. He hung up as soon as I said that, as I had been poking fun at them and asking them technical questions that they couldn't answer. I do own multiple Windows machines but he didn't need to know that. I asked which version of Windows it was and on which computer, as there are about 11 PCs in my house running: 3 running Windows 7, 1 running Windows Vista, 3 running Windows XP, 1 running Windows 95, 1 running Windows 3.1 ( It's in our garage and hasn't run in more than 15 years but it counts dammit), Mac OSX 10.6.7 (My school lappy/main machine unless I am playing games on my desktop), and even a tablet PC running Android 3.0.1 Honeycomb (I bought it to play with. They're super handy for school or reading books with the Kobo app).

That virtual machine idea is genius. Malicious software isn't enough, you'd also want to have the most graphic and revolting porn filling up the file system as well, just for kicks.

The other thing you can do is string them along with a soft/hard to hear voice, and then somehow get something as loud as a car horn and put it directly to the phone and try to make them deaf

unless you have a good receiver in you phone, they usually don't pick up on "ambient noise" very well. Something indirect, like a car horn, might not be as loud as you imagine it to be. Try having someone calling you from their car and ask them to honk the horn; it's not THAT loud.

We should have a competition to see who can keep a rep on the phone for the longest period of time.

I think he means more like getting an air horn and blasting it directly into the receiver. But lololol at OP.

That reminds me of the time when some kids called my house and told me it was pizza hut and I had won $500 dollars. Purely idiotic.. I just made up random stuff and they kept repeating the same line.
I have an announcement to make, "Moo!" That is all.

What you could do is set your computer's sound input from Microphone to Stereo Mix, pump up the volume and then proceed to send some very annoying sound (Day[9] scream, Trololololol guy or the scream that plays at the end of the second level of those maze scare games).
