Nice idea, but as other commenters has pointed out, maybe not the best name. Back in the 90’s when I first connected to the internet, my ISP provided a package called Internet in a Box made by a company called Spry.

- ashleyn 5y agoThis was my first thought as well! Our first computer came with Spry Internet in a Box in 1996. Mosaic was already aging pretty badly at that point, the early web changed fast.
