MH> Nonetheless, to our knowledge no BORG has ever tried to assimilate a 
MH> Founder, so we can only infer whether or not such an attempt would be 
That's only because the BORG haven't gotten that far across the galaxy yet, 
but the founders can be assimilated by the Borg, as they are a beatable form.
Otherwise the Fed/Klingon alliance would not be able to defeat even one ship.
The only reason that the Fed/Klingons have any problem beating the Founders 
is because the Jem'haddar are just too gung ho on dying as ordered.
Witness the first encounter with them. The weaponry was a bit different, but 
they are also suicidal. Technology can be overcome, but a kamikazi fool that 
is designed and grown in a test tube is bit harder to defeat, as he won't or 
can't cry uncle.
