Currently I am running two models, a D420 and a D820, both with
integrated Intel video cards. I am very happy with them in terms of
suspend-to-RAM. Ditto with an Asus eee PC. A couple of years ago I ran a
Thinkpad T42 with an ATI card and with the radeon driver; that performed
well too. I have never run a laptop with an NVidia chip, so I can't
comment on that case.

You might try hacking the scripts under /etc/acpi to remove the nvidia
kernel module before suspending and insert the module again before
resuming.  It could take quite a while to get it right, however.

Ah, yes I've had good luck with Intel also, but nvidia is another beast.  I tried all kinds of things under /etc/acpi, /sys/power/state, etc.  But now I have a solution I'm happy with so all is good.  Had a Dell with an ATI card before and suspend/resume worked with the stock kernel, didn't even need the ATI drivers.

Thanks,
Mark
