Is BORG an actual store or just a generic reference to the Big Box Home
Centers?

I think it took life, in woodworking and home improvement, as a reference to
Home Depot -- "Big Orange Retail Giant". But it generically refers to Lowes
and others. BORG has been used to refer to any giant company including
Microsoft.
