What is a compact mini PC?
A compact mini PC is a full desktop computer built into a small chassis. It takes up far less desk space than a tower PC or a laptop-sized footprint. It connects to any monitor, keyboard and mouse, and it runs standard desktop software. Mini PCs suit offices, shops, kiosks, classrooms and home workstations where space is limited.
Key specifications
The Thinvent Treo Mini PC uses an Intel Celeron N5095A processor from the 11th generation. The processor has 4 cores, a maximum frequency of 2.9 GHz and 4 MB of cache. The unit includes 16 GB of DDR4 RAM and a 1 TB SSD for storage. It ships with a 12V 10A power adapter. The Treo Mini PC does not include Wi-Fi.
Operating system options
The Treo Mini PC is available with several operating systems:
| Operating system | Best suited for |
|---|---|
| Windows 11 IoT | Embedded and dedicated-function systems |
| Windows 11 Professional | Business and office use |
| Windows 11 Pro | Business and office use |
| DOS | Legacy and command-line applications |
| Thinux Embedded Linux | Linux-based and embedded applications |
Each configuration is also available with a Thinvent keyboard and mouse set.

Why the form factor saves space
A mini PC mounts behind a monitor or under a desk. Its small size and low power draw suit setups where a full tower PC does not fit. The 12V adapter keeps the external power supply compact.
