Joanna Rutkowska, the main developer of Qubes OS, has an article about it and probably is working hard on the implementation for x86 laptops:

That's certainly an interesting design in this space. Being a laptop would make it more convenient. I think she should talk to the Purism or Minifree folks since their crowd will already pay a bit extra for free or more private stuff.

Purism already ships qubes as an install option (and gives a small donation to qubes if you opt to use it).

This is the reason I bought a Libre 13 laptop from them - they were already certified to work well with qubes.

Yeah, it's one of the reasons I suggested them. They already support the project. They can build laptops. Maybe they can build a stateless laptop, too.
