One really nice feature is in addition to the tech tree they list every single unit and their description and information and what units they're strong against and what units they're weak against, and lets say you have the zergling which is strong against marauder then you can go and click on the marauder and then get his portrait just like that.

My beta download progress was at about 90%, but I stopped.
I'm currently away from home (where my good PC is) and am using a laptop. I thought I'd just install the beta here because I'm so excited, but I just read that somewhere in the user agreement, it says that I can only install the beta onto one computer.
I don't want to get intro trouble or nuthin', so I was wondering if anyone here has a copy of the user agreement, or remembers if there was anything against installing the beta onto more than one computer?
I can't for the life of me find a copy of the user agreement, and someone on the Bnet SC2 beta forums is asking the same thing I am, but he only got one response, which I'd like to re-confirm for myself.
Oh well, at the worst, I'm only going to have to wait a couple more days >_<.

How does it feel to be in beta? I don't care any stats/strategies, considering the fact tha I'll never be able to participate in.

What's the down low on Protoss shield regeneration?
Are you finding the new gas setup limiting?

I have some questions I'm hoping a beta player can answer:
1) Does the sensor tower still reveal itself to the enemy by showing the perimeter of its sight?
2) Specifically, how exactly does Salvage work? What buildings can it be used on?
3) Suppose I have two SCV's selected, and I queue up construction of two refineries at two gas nodes. Will the SCV's split up and each build at a separate node, or will they both travel to one node first and then move to an open one?
4) Is there any difference in the ground vs. air attack on the Viking? How do researches come into play with this unit? Do they benefit from either ground and air upgrades?
Thanks.

What do you mean? They do different damage and have different ranges, if that's what you're talking about. But this has always been the case.Is there any difference in the ground vs. air attack on the Viking?
They are considered air vehicles for the purposes of vehicle upgrades. Both their air and ground attack gets a buff.Do they benefit from either ground and air upgrades?
