While browsing the closed ACPI tickets I ran across Lewis's report of 
working Suspend on his T61.  I made the changes he suggested and Suspend 
actually works now.  Only works using the Suspend menu item off of XCenter, 
not the Fn+F4 keys or closing the lid.  Also only resumes using the power 
button (on my T42p Fn+F4 resumed).  But it works. :-)

x:\CONFIG.SYS:
	PSD=ACPI.PSD /SMP /R /VBE /APIC
	BASEDEV=APM.ADD
	RUN=C:\OS2\ACPIDAEMON.EXE
	RUN=C:\ECS\SYSTEM\GENMAC\DRIVER\HELPERW.EXE

D:\MPTN\ETC\ACPID.CFG:
  [ACPID]
	LID = suspend
	PowerButton = Off
	SleepState = S3
	IdleState = C2
	MaxThrl = 0
	MinThrl = 0
	LogScreen = 0
	ExtraKernelHLT = No


Still only getting 1.5 hours from the battery though. :-(    I have created 
a new ticket on the ACPI Trac - http://svn.netlabs.org/acpi/ticket/252  Can 
anyone else add to this please.  According to Eugene we need 20+ additional 
users to the ticket for them to  solve the problem.
