AYANEO unveils Macintosh-inspired retro Mini-PC powered by AMD Ryzen 3200U

The newly announced Ayaneo Retro Mini PC AM01 is a compact desktop computer powered by AMD processors. It’s housed inside of a 5-inch case designed to look as much like a beige Macintosh from the 1980s as it can, without attracting the ire of Apple. The front even flaunts a brazen six-colour rainbow logo (magnetic, and removable), while the faux display bears a phoney Finder-esque face on it. The Ryzen 7 5700U variants offer full support for Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2, while Ryzen 3 options come with Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 4.2. The device is small enough to transport with ease. Ayaneo says that the AM01 is kept cool with a large fan and four copper heat pipes. It also features expandable dual-channel DDR4 RAM slots and room for a 2TB M.2 solid-state drive. Ayaneo has included a SATA 3.0 interface, as well, allowing you to add in a 2.5-inch SDD or HDD if you so choose. All the models with RAM and storage options also come with Windows 11 pre-installed. Ayaneo has created an app called AYASpace. This is preinstalled on the non-barebones editions. Plus, the product website advertises compatibility with Ubuntu, Debian, and other ‘Linux hosts.
