What is a mini computer?
A mini computer is a small desktop computer, also called a mini PC. It has a full processor, memory, storage and ports in a housing about the size of a book or smaller. Mini PCs run standard operating systems such as Windows 11 Pro or Ubuntu Linux. They suit offices, kiosks, digital signage, point-of-sale and light industrial control.
