>>Have you ever seen a Boca modem in the stores?

Nope. Boca is normally seen in mail order catalogs, right next to wider offerings by 3Com, Zoom, Diamond, Global Village, et al.

>>That sounds better, can not figure why ZOOM can make money but Boca can not.

See above. Retail channels, or rather, lack thereof in the case of Boca.

US Robotics went on a mission to put a world of hurt the Rockwell modem minions, and basically did for the past two years. Unfortunately for USR/3Com, they caught some of their own flack in the process.
