Linux Mint Unveils Pocket-Sized ‘MintBox Mini’ PC

[Filipe]

Linux Mint has announced that a new PC in its ‘MintBox’ line of PCs is coming in the spring: the ‘MintBox Mini’.

The new box continues the distro’s long-standing partnership with Israeli computer manufacturer CompuLab, which began with the release of the original MintBox PC back in 2012. That was followed the year after by the more powerful MintBox 2, a device which sold out in Europe on its Amazon debut last year.


Has it got what it takes to beat the super tiny $89 Intel Compute PC running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS? Let’s take a look.

MintBox Mini Specs
The success of Chromeboxes has proven that big things really can come in very small packages. The MintBox Mini is no exception, offering twice the performance of the MintBox 2 in a device able to slip into a pocket.


Inside it touts:


AMD A4 6400T CPU (64-bit, quad-core, 1GHz)
Radeon R3 GPU
4GB RAM
64GB SSD

Um bom media center.
