Not really.

Each small group of Android devices needs its own highly customised
setup. Unlike a PC there is no real standard or consistency across the
different groups.

In addition you often need custom flash tools and the like to do the
setup and you can also break some of them for good if you get it wrong.

It's very different to a PC as it's intended to be a device with specific
kernel and setuo running a specific environment, and everything is
specialised.

How it plays out longer term is an interesting question. Clearly PC
hardware is moving into that sort of form factor, although again not all
of it is 'PC like' and some of the ARM folks are working more on
standardisation.
