   I guess they meant it as original in the sense that it was the original   
   series from which Caprica came from.

   Data was Pinnochio, he wanted to be accepted by humans. The Cylons were   
   somewhere in between the Borg and Data. Cylons wanted to be the

   sense. The Borg want everything to be like Borgs.
