You know - this has given me a thought (heaven forbid..) - what kind of 
ship in the ST/TNG or *any other* universe would people be interesting in 
*acquiring* (as in given a choice, which ship would ya take)...

        That depends on what I'm going to use it for and what kind of
limits. If there were no limits than I would want a Borg Battleship.

        If we are not limited to the ST stuff then I would go for an
Asgerd-class Imperial planetoid from David Weber's "The Armageddon
Inheritance" That might be a bit of an overkill though :)
holes). In that book this is a standard ship!! And the Fourth Empire had
more than 100,000 ship of that size!! Let's see if you could beat that Brett!!

Rather than "Standard" I'd say they were more like the Iowa and 
Wisconson.  Small in number, specialized battlecraft.  I'd still prefer 
the "moon" class planetiod.  Slower, less armored, wimpy weapons (in 
comparrison) but the computer kicked butt! (As opposed to your 
Asgard's retarded number cruncher which would have to have it's systems 
totally rewritten.)
