It works fine for me provided I don't need a keyboard when I turn the
computer back on.  It's really freaky, actually.  On no fewer than three
machines--and three radically different ones at that: an old Sony
laptop, a middle-aged generic desktop and a brand new Dell
laptop--suspend saves everything to disk, comes back up to where it was
suspended, and then allows you to do anything. Except use your keyboard.
On the desktop machine, unplugging and replugging the keyboard doesn't
do anything, but plugging in a USB keyboard into any of the three
machines allows it to work.  (But never the built-ins for the laptop nor
the PS/2 one for the desktop.)

"Sexual organs were created for reproduction between the male element
and the female element -- and everything that deviates from that is not
acceptable from a Buddhist point of view. Between a man and man, a woman
and another woman, in the mouth, the anus, or even using a hand." --The
Dalai Lama
