I really like the concept of Qubes. But they really need (imho) to work on their hardware compatibility list. I didn't investigate laptops much but last time I checked (2 or 3 months ago) they didn't have a fully supported (desktop) motherboard that can be bought new.

I tried to install it on my computer, it didn't work. I'd buy a new desktop just for Qubes if I had the guaranty that it would be fully supported. I'm not spending money just to discover that it won't run with my shiny new hardware.

On this topic, does anyone have suggested hardware to use Qubes with besides the Purism laptop?

Haven't run into any issues on a ThinkPad T420. There's a number of more recent ThinkPads on their Hardware Compatibility List[1] as well.
