Product Description:

Starcraft for Mac OS X should be installed on a hard drive that is formatted as Mac OS Extended. To find out how your hard drive is formatted, select your hard drive in the Finder and choose "Show Info" from the File menu
For the best color quality, it is recommended that you run Mac OS X's Display Calibrator Assistant. You can find it by choosing Displays in System Prefs. Select the Color tab and click the Calibrate button. Then follow the on-screen instructions to calibrate your display
Networking over IPX, Appletalk, Serial and Direct Modem-Modem is not available in Starcraft for Mac OS X
UDP Networking added. You can now play on your local TCP/IP based local network by choosing "Local Area Network (UDP/IP)" in the Multiplayer options screen. An upcoming release of the Classic Mac and Windows versions will also support this feature, allowing LAN play between these three versions
If the computer goes to sleep while you're in the battle.net chat screen, you may get disconnected from Battle.net. If this happens simply disconnect and then reconnect to Battle.net
If music is turned off in the game, you may notice occasional pauses while the CD-ROM drive spins up. You may want to leave music turned on to avoid this
Please do not lock any of the files in the Starcraft folder. This will prevent you from being able to connect to Battle.net
If you have any problems installing Starcraft in Mac OS X's Classic environment, download StarCraft_Installer_1.05-b.sit from ftp://ftp.blizzard.com/pub/StarCraft/patches/StarCraft_Installer_1.05-B.sit. Run this program with the StarCraft CD in your CD-ROM drive. Should that fail, restart into Mac OS 9 and install from there

The only new features I noticed was the color of the in-game messages matches player color. A subtle but excellent little detail. Will Starcraft be updated for universal binary? Will it work on an intel Mac? While not necessary cutting edge, it is an excellent game still after all these years. Well done, Blizzard.
