Fair enough, here it goes.
In a nutshell, we learn that the Borg were created when some of the stranded crew of the NX-02 were thown back several thousand years with a uber powerful pacifist techno race called the caelear (spelling?). Most of the aliens were destroyed, but Captain Hernendez and a landing party were split up, Hernendez and a few flying back around 800 years, all the others getting tossed back about 5000 years. It turns out, that when the aliens began starving, one alien, a female "bonded" with the last surviving man and woman. In other words, assimilating them. Hence were the Borg created. Captain Hernendez underwent a procedure in which alien "catoms" were placed into her body, granting her eternal youth and powers, but, since these were the original version of the Borg nano probes, she can hear the collective.
In the end, the aliens destroy the "collective" which is the over "spirit" of the insane alien, and assimilate all the drones for pacifistic pursuits.

Bottom line........the Borg as such, do not exist ANYWHERE anymore. Borg are completely gone now. Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta quadrants are completely Borg free zones.
I skipped ALOT of the story, but in a nutshell, that's what happens.
Oh, and Starfleet suffered a 40% overall loss of it's fleet.
