One thing I love about the computer industry is that the records are meant to be shattered. You can never wear the crown for long period, it is like Game Of Thrones, but unlike this, you never last on that throne and in the Mini PC Industry, thrones are meant to be shaken. A few times last year, we talked about the Mi Mini PC Project, a powerful mini computer with focus on it’s size. The Mi Mini PC despite its small size could still stand toe to toe with some modern laptops, and the team behind it went on securing over a million dollars in crowdfunding on Indiegogo. Zotac ZBox Pico PI225 is a similar mini PC but it is way smaller than the Mi Mini Pc project.
