MacDraw II--four disks to three?

I recently bought two shrinkwrapped MacDraw IIs. I kept one in the packaging but opened the other one. I also have a third MacDraw with the box, although there are some differences between the two I recently acquired and the one that I've had forever.

The MacDraw I just opened has a different manual, which is understandable. It covers the features of 1.1 in the manual instead of leaving them out of the main text and describing them seperately--the old copy I have was obviously from right around when Claris released 1.1, the newer one is from late 1991-1992 because of the System 7 compatibility advertised.

Then I opened the disk envelope. There were only three 800K disks inside. My old copy had four!

Any theories on this? I can understand why my two MacWrite Pros are different--one is on 1.4MB disks and the other on 800Ks--but eliminating one floppy altogether?

Also--should I send in the registration card? :p

 
I tried registering a second-hand Mac Plus in 1999 and got no response. That's when I found out Apple moved from Mariani Ave. to Infinite Loop.
