  • Delete as per nom. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:42, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. At its current state, there's not enough notability claim to merit an article. --Infogapp1 (talk) 20:43, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The fact this company made barely a mark in its brief existence means it has zero notability.TH1980 (talk) 00:57, 5 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Most of the historic sources only show advertisements or passing mentions. Capankajsmilyo (talk) 04:42, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, Per nom. Is not notable. Alex-h (talk) 09:05, 7 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but disambiguate This one is tough bc desktop.com did play an important role in the history of the internet but the domain is currently owned a wholly unrelated company. Brad Thomas Hanks (talk) 17:48, 8 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete there is insufficient in-depth coverage. Even if kept, a dab page is not used when there are only two types of a thing. Bearian (talk) 15:50, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
