I played SC 7 or 8 years ago and loved it. Never got Broodwar until a year or two ago. I've been eagerly awaiting SC2 for about a year. Discovered TL about 2 months ago, and finally got into the beta via a Gamestop preorder last week.
I'm a newb.
I played three custom games, one as each race. Toss is sort of intimidating becuase if you make a poor investment, ur stuck with it. Zerg tech buildings are confusing; seems like there are too many. Terran is the most like SC and so I decided on Terran.

I think terran is the protoss of sc2. Easy to learn, very cost effective. Good choice imo.

I began by playing as Protoss, All the way back in Brood War, My first game in Starcraft 2 was a loss, And then I played Terran out of error
I was invited to a 2v2 game, And, without thinking, blithely accepted, I'd not realised it did more than just arraign, Terran, by chance, the race selected
I then discovered, therein lies the rub, For Terran proved an easier affair to manage, No pylons to arrange as a powered hub, No warpgate structure to micromanage
Open with marauders and tech to medivac, And make sure they can't tell what skills I lack

I liked the last 2 stanzas, but i legit cringed at the first two.

I need to stop trying to write With positive intention, Beyond that certain point at night, When wandering goes attention
The moon does glare 'twixt the clouds, Team Liquid posts softly blurred, Before long the veil of sleep shrouds, That I've already used a word
'til sleepy eyes gaze upon my works, And see too late the mess I've made, That twice in verse the same word lurks, Then 'tis to bed I exhausted strayed
But know that once my head hits pillow, In forum-shame and self-pity I wallow

LOL aww c'mon I didn't mean no harm. 'manage' and 'micromanage' are different words, I'll let it slide this time.
EDIT:
"That twice in verse the same word lurks", I have to say this is an exceptionally beautiful line.
