[QUOTE]Originally posted by MinutiaeMan: [QB] The Borg had to have always been into assimilation. Why would they have gone after Guinan's entire species otherwise? They just wanted to get the Enterprise-D's technology first. Phase One: Unknown ship shows up. (Yeah yeah, thanks to our wonderful friend Braga, the Borg knew all about the Federation!) They send a single drone aboard to analyze its technological capabilities to resist. One drone gets fried, but the Borg quickly adapt to the hand phasers. Phase Two: Prepare for assimilation by locking a tractor beam on the Enterprise. The Enterprise fights back and causes major damage that forces the Borg to go into regeneration mode. Mark, don't forget that Spock mind-melded with V'ger. Although he was overwhelmed by the link to such a powerful consciousness, he still had to have gotten some fairly accurate information. There's a big difference between a machine and a machine-humanoid hybrid. The Borg also aren't interested in other beings' quests for perfection. In their mind, they'd be doing the other guys a favor by assimilating them, therefore uniting their two quests for perfection. Take Data in "First Contact," for example. Data is on a quest for "perfection" -- but the Borg would rather that he do it on their terms. [/QB][/QUOTE]
