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.


Thank you. It appeared that way from the context but I wasn't sure. I
knew about the use for Microsoft derived from ST:TNG didn't think they
were selling oak planks (yet).
