MU BORG...

The mirror universe Borg should be like the Baku. . .they are technophobes who gave up technology in favor of living like hippies. ;)
 
Which Stargate episode was that?
The SGC finds a planet that is completely inhospitable, save for an energy dome that protects a single village. The power to this dome is failing, so to conserve power the computer system is forcing people to kill themselves by leaving the dome via a link, just like the one in TOL episode.
 
The Borg in the mirror universe are peaceful and only use the nanoprobes to keep them healthy, beautiful, and almost eternal, as well as fixing computers, they give their technology to anyone, (ie: they are the opposite of the regular universe Ferengi). Their appearance is that of normal humaniod with no outer cybernetic implants, (bionecause of the more advanced nanoechnology and it also helps productions), if necessary a light nanoprobe green make up on to the exposed skin. the Queen is called the Presidenbt and democratically elected.
 
Still seems like a senseless waste of a natural ability though.I mean can you imagine if the borg learned to amplify the telepathic abilities of a race that is capable of controlling the minds of non-telepathic ones? No need for Locutus, Just waltz right in and make them lower their sheilds.
Well, Queen or not, these are still the Borg. You know - the guys who adapt to shield themselves from different phaser frequencies, but never figure out to just shield ALL frequencies of phaser fire, and always seem to have forgotten to shield themselves from ANY frequencies by the time you run into them again. The guys who have the ability to time travel, and still lose. Not exactly the brightest bulbs in the pack. ;)

The Borg shields DO shield all frequencies, however, to some frequencies it is more vulnerable than others. This however is not stupidity, it's the nature of the universe. Everything has a frequency, which means that everything is vulnerable to certain frequencies and things, while resistant to others. The Borg have had the bad luck that their shields happen to be particularly vulnerable to phasers and especially certain frequencies of phasers. They'll adapt though.
