How do you choose the right micro PC?To make sure that you end up with a micro PC that you love, you'll need to take a variety of factors into consideration. Most computer users are interested in micro PCs for their slim form factor, and if you only have a certain amount of space to house your tiny computer, you'll need to make sure that the case of the PC you're interested in doesn't exceed these dimensions. Be sure to pick an operating system that you enjoy from the Windows line or from Linux. Also, you'll need to consider the computing power that you'll require to get tasks done. The more RAM you have, the more processes you can run, and the better the processor in your computer is, the faster you can run those processes. Lastly, you should determine whether you need a mouse and keyboard or just the PC itself.
