I play it, a bit too much 
. I have a 15" MBP. Zerg and Toss. I'm better with protoss, but I have more fun with zerg.
Quick question for zerg players (a lot here!), what do you do against terran? I'm ok zvz or zvp, but terran just beat me like it's nothing. All they do it get a TON of marines, some mauraders/medivacs, and then tanks. No matter what I've tried nothing ground based can get to the tanks before they're killed off (tried zerglings+speed, banelings, roaches, hydras, infestors, and combinations of all), and when I try air the mass of marines slaughters them. My only way to win is to beat them before they get tanks - or if I'm lucky and they went air, with hydras and then overrun them before they can switch to tanks. Ugh.

Micro is too intense for me. Click click clicky click clicky... I will stick to slower paced games so my fingers don't rub off on the keyboard/mouse.
I'm playing it on my Core i7 Windows 7 64 PC, I wish it would run on my Macbook but I have a GMA3100.
Hey, I'm playing Toss but only on silver Level, but that should not stay that way
Tip if you are really into SC2:
http://www.day9tv.blip.tv
he is the "Proffessor" of Starcraft.
And also Commentarys by Huskystarcraft and HDstarcraft on Youtube.
If you need a walkthrough for the Mission AND the Challanges, PSYstarcraft on Youtube.
SC2 Runs very well on my Macpro since the 1.2 Patch and the new SN Graphic drivers now (for about 2 Month). I am on high settings and play at full HD.
Mouse: There was a Thread on www.teamliquid.net about NOT setting your sensitivity to a multiple of 5. Go there and check it out - I could not feel the difference though...
En taro Tassadar!

Mouse Acceleration Issue
The mouse acceleration really sucks. Not only that, apple made the acceleration chart way too steep. I hate all aspects of it.
That's why I'm exclusively on my boot Camp side now

I play protoss, mostly, tho lately I've been hooked to custom maps, so much variety and creativity making a whole new game out of a "map". The editor (admittedly I haven't touched it for SC2) seems to be far more versatile than that of SC1.
