T61 7658-CTO.  CTO = configure to order.  A machine with the same model
number might end up being completely different.  This one has a 2.1GHz
Intel Core 2 Duo (T8100), 14.1" widescreen, WXGA+ resolution, and
integrated Intel graphics.

ACPI only.

You can run with either arch.  I'm using amd64 and following snapshots.

Nope, as previously stated.  See here[1] also.  It is unlikely that you
will find any current laptop with APM support, which is required for
OpenBSD to suspend-to-RAM and resume at this time.  That doesn't mean it
won't ever be supported.
