About: DR-WebSpyder

An Entity of Type: software, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

DR-WebSpyder is a DOS web browser, mail client and operating system runtime environment that was developed by Caldera UK in 1997. It was based on the DR-DOS operating system and networking components from Novell as well as the Arachne web browser by Michal Polák of xChaos software. The system was designed to run on low-end desktop systems, but being able to boot and execute from disk as well as from ROM or network, it was also tailored for x86-based thin clients and embedded systems with or without disk drives. Using the web browser as its principal user interface, it could be also used for kiosk systems and set-top boxes. Named Embrowser, it has been ported to Linux in 1999 and was called Embedix Browser since 2000.

  • Which components actually existed before Caldera bought the DR assets in July 1996, and which were only a concept at this stage? Please specify explicitly. (en)
  • Since the Embedix Browser isn't mentioned explicitly in the reference and later sources, I'm not sure if the browser was part of the assets bought by Metrowerks or not. Also unknown, if the DOS version of the browser went the same way or if it felt back to Canopy and was auctioned off to someone else, possibly DeviceLogics/DRDOS, Inc. ? (en)
