What Does "Computer All Model" Mean?
The term "computer all model" is a broad way of asking for the complete range of computing devices available in a single place — every form factor, every processor tier and every configuration option. Buyers searching this way are usually not looking for one specific machine; they want to see the full spread of choices so they can compare form factors, performance levels and operating systems before narrowing down. That spread typically covers four families: compact mini PCs, thin clients for virtual desktop environments, space-saving all-in-one computers with an integrated display, and ruggedised industrial PCs built for factory floors, kiosks and outdoor cabinets.
The Main Form Factors at a Glance
Each form factor solves a different problem, and the hardware inside is chosen to match. The table below summarises how they compare.
| Form Factor | Typical Use | Display | Mounting | Environment | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | Mini PC | Desk work, digital signage, branch offices | External monitor | VESA behind monitor | Office / indoor | | Thin Client | VDI, Citrix, RDP, call centres | External monitor | VESA or shelf | Office / indoor | | All-in-One | Reception desks, retail counters, classrooms | Built-in 21.5" or 23.8" | Desk stand | Office / indoor | | Industrial PC | Factory automation, kiosks, control rooms | External monitor | DIN rail / panel | Dust, heat, vibration |
Mini PCs and thin clients are the most flexible: they are small enough to hide behind a screen, run on low-voltage adapters, and can be configured with or without an operating system depending on whether the deployment is Windows-based or Linux-based. All-in-ones remove cable clutter entirely by building the screen and the computer into one unit. Industrial PCs trade compactness for wide-temperature tolerance, fanless cooling and protected I/O.
Processors, Memory and Storage Options
Across the range, the most common processor families are Intel's entry-level and mid-tier lines. Celeron-class chips such as the N5095A (4 cores, up to 2.9 GHz, 4 MB cache) suit everyday productivity, browsing, billing and thin-client workloads. Intel N-series parts like the N95, N100 and N150 offer a step up in efficiency and are popular in fanless mini PCs. For heavier multitasking, Core i3 and i5 processors — including 12th, 13th and 14th generation models such as the 1215U, 1315U and 1335U — bring more cores and threads for data-heavy applications.
Memory configurations typically start at 4 GB and scale through 8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB and 64 GB, while solid-state storage is commonly offered at 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB and 1024 GB. Operating system choice is just as important as hardware: options include Windows 11 Pro, Ubuntu Linux 24.04 LTS, embedded Linux builds, FreeDOS and machines shipped without any OS so that integrators can image their own. Connectivity is standardised around Gigabit Ethernet (with dual-port options for network separation), HDMI outputs and USB 3.2 Gen 2 and USB-C ports.
How to Choose the Right Model
Start with the workload, not the specification sheet. A single-application kiosk or a virtual desktop endpoint rarely needs more than a quad-core processor and 8 GB of RAM, while a machine running local analytics, multiple browser sessions or design tools will benefit from an i5, 16–32 GB of memory and a larger SSD. Next, consider the environment: if the device will sit in a dusty workshop, near a furnace or inside an unventilated cabinet, fanless industrial hardware is the safer choice because there are no moving parts to clog or fail. Finally, decide on the operating system and management approach — thin clients are usually locked down and centrally managed, whereas mini PCs and all-in-ones often run a full desktop OS.
Thinvent's Range of All-Model Computers
Thinvent manufactures across all four form factors, so a single supplier can cover an entire rollout. The Aero Mini PC family, for example, pairs Intel processors such as the N5095A (4 cores, up to 2.9 GHz, 4 MB cache) with 16 GB DDR4 RAM and a 128 GB SSD, and is available with Windows 11 IoT, Windows 11 Pro, DOS, Thinux™ Embedded Linux, or bundled with a Thinvent keyboard and mouse set. Beyond mini PCs, Thinvent builds thin clients for VDI and remote-desktop deployments, all-in-one PCs with integrated 21.5" and 23.8" screens, and fanless industrial computers designed to keep running through dust, heat and continuous operation. Every unit is built for long-term availability, so mixed fleets can be standardised on one platform and supported worldwide.
