Does anyone know if OpenBSD can run properly on a Macbook?

MacBook G4 sure... newer ones may have problems. To new users/new hardware I would recommend an usb stick with the network installer and then try to install to the usb stick and check what is working.

Also check if you PC is listed here. https://dmesgd.nycbug.org/index.cgi?do=index&fts=apple

You are tempting me to pick up my 1 of 2 favorite laptops (or both) of ever that I owned: The 12 and 17 inch Aluminum Powerbook G4. Makes me wonder what kind of mods I can do to it now?

Just installed it on a late 2009 MacBook A1342 and everything works except the Broadcom Wi-Fi. Using an external Belkin stick supported by rum(4). Even the NVIDIA GeForce 9400m is functional both on the command line and in Xorg. The touchpad works out of the box with gestures and right-click and scrolling and the whole nine yards.

Newer Macs might be more challenging, with fancy proprietary chips and whatnot.

Be sure to enable apm(4) to not melt through your motherboard.

Runs great on my iBook G3. I know that isn't what you asked, but FWIW OpenBSD works on my old laptops.
