The search term "Zima Mini PC" names a brand rather than one model. Zima's devices include the ZimaCube, ZimaBoard and ZimaBlade, but the facts available to us do not give the processor, RAM, storage or operating system for any of them, so we cannot make a specification-level comparison. The closest Thinvent match for a compact, always-on mini PC is the Thinvent Treo Mini PC range, which covers Intel Celeron, Core i3, i5 and i7 and AMD Ryzen 5 processors.
