work on margins; we need to improve our market share.  We've set
the objectives and our plan is in place...now to execute.
    "We're expanding the focus and mission of our company.  While
we'll continue to emphasize our core strength as a cost-effective
hardware provider, we plan to move into some additional added-value
products.  Our business is not only hardware.  Our business is
communications.
    "We want to provide products that allow access to information.
When connections on an information network are required, Boca
Research will always be a potential choice.  We will continue to work
on lowering our product costs, improving the cycle time in product
introductions and adding new products to our portfolio.  I am intent
on maximizing shareholder value," he concluded.
