That's an unexpected selection. When I think Mini PC I think Lenovo ThinkCentre, Dell Optiplex Micro, maybe a USFF Fujitsu Esprimo or HP EliteDesk. Basically any USFF (Ultra Small Form Factor) model from a major manufacturer. Reliable, easy to source, and if you're fine with being a couple years behind the curve really cheap to buy refurbished because companies buy them by the truckload and then replace them every couple years.
