No, the only feature that is different is that secondary connection is disabled in the demo version. The way that portal implements its second connection is clunky to say the least and is not a feature worth worrying about. If you need to have 2 games open at one time its much easier to just open another copy of portal rather than using the 2nd connection feature. (BTW i am a registered user and have never used 2nd connection cause it sucks)

By default portal will not let you open a second copy of itself, there is a way around this outlined in the help pages, you need to make an empty file called allowmultiple.co and put it into the portal folder. Then your able to run as many copies of portal as you require.
