*'''Delete''': It seems to me that the notability of the first existence of Unipalm relates to [[:Pipex]] and has sufficiently coverage in that article. As to its second existence, Highbeam turns up various routine distribution announcements, but I can see nothing indicating [[:WP:CORPDEPTH|notability]] in that period up to its merger into Computerlinks, whose own website now just redirects to [[:Arrow Electronics]] following an acquisition [http://www.channelweb.co.uk/crn-uk/news/2361635/computerlinks-uk-founder-heads-through-arrow-exit-doors].
