Not intentionally but I suppose so.  I have a laptop that's just as capable as my main rig for the vast majority of things minus gaming, and a raspberry pi for basic tasks if need be.

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

I still have the Asus laptop I had before my t420s and I also still have my 4770k with mobo, ram and CPU cooler. Plus I still have my old Lumia 930 just in case my current phone breaks. 

So yeah I got backups and I have backups for most of my tech.
