Hm, I'd think of reasons of size just to fit a bootable DR-WebSpyder 
plus all the needed parts of the networking stack & modem dialer on 
a single 1,4 Mb floppy... (AFAIK, the demo contains the DR-DOS 6.0 
EMM386.SYS and OpenDOS 7.01 kernel files - the old COMMAND.COM did 
not support long filenames and its help text was not improved.)
