Actually my complete fleet (~20) of branch office routers are based on APU2c4's running various OpenBSD versions (I think the oldest is 5.8). I have just ordered one APU3b4, as I wanted to test mobile provider as a backup link. I see it probably won't be any good as OpenBSD router (yet), but at least I'll be able to test and give feedback.
