I'm still a huge fan of Borders (I worked for both companies) and going in to a Borders is a way better experience for me than B&N. I can never find anything to read at B&N, but I always walk out with a ton of books from Borders. The staff is always friendly and are huge readers (but I agree with a previous comment that upper management was bad at least a decade ago at Borders, but the new CEO may have shaken things up since).
That being said, I am not in favor of the two merging. I just want Borders to do better in the marketplace.
