Borg also made things like bathroom fixtures and scales. They had a plant in Delavan, Wisconsin at one time.

There was one in Muncie, Indiana too. It was across from my family's flower shop. The plant closed in 2009 (http://idee.iweb.bsu.edu/work/changinggears.html), a final enormous blow to a city that'd been suffering industrial decline for a couple decades.

Borg-Warner Automotive. I was there a long time ago, probably 1986, installing software. Sorry to see it closed. Nice people there.

The Borg are mass-producing?! :O

"You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile." The execs from Borg said that at every damn meeting with Warner. Everyone was so glad when that merger was complete.
