IOBSD from 07 was pretty funny as well

"Goal

IOBSD believes in high capacity. Lots of it. So much, in fact, that
the porn industry will make us the platform of choice for their
realtime editing and distribution needs.

"Garbage In, Garbage Out"

To ensure that novice users of IOBSD do not receive faulty advise, we
have disabled all mailing lists and redirect every last user request
to the bin bucket(4). Users with a real problem are suggested to try
OpenBSD, an operating system with a solid track record of security and
stability. Who cares that your porn is plentiful, if someone else has
rooted it?" "

Actually, I have seen one of those running OpenBSD, I'm just not sure how

OpenBSD can suspend,

man 8 apm


apm -s for standby or apm -z for suspend state. I don't know if it will work
with your device, but it does work on some
