Yes it was harsh, but I still don't know how to resume and I didn't appreciate having to do an unclean shutdown by holding down the power button for 10 seconds. Neither the apm or acpi man pages says how to resume (or mentions lid), I guess it depends on the hardware. I've been using OpenBSD since 2.7 and I don't like surprises. I close the lids on my laptops to carry them or use them as a writing surface. With my past few Dell laptops sound didn't work after suspend so I stopped using it. My newest is from 2008 so it didn't seem worth mentioning.
I don't remember seeing the option to enable or disable in the install, it reminded me of something Windows might do. Yes, it's machdep.lidsuspend=0 to turn it off. I thought there used to be an apm.con or acpi.conf, I looked for those first.
