This is just my blog for being depressed about learning to Brood War. I can barely beat the P computer with standard play as T(just siege expanding and then adding some factories, I'm not even good enough to control vulture harass while macroing) and I'm having a super hard time learning to split my workers effectively. I don't think it matters that much as long as I can approximately get a 2-2 split done, as far as I know, but it feels a little exasperating to know I can't even send workers to the right patches.
It's so tempting to blame my equipment. I'm using a little Logitech laptop mouse with my Asus 900HA eeePC netbook, but I think I'm just terrible at Brood War. So terrible I can barely click my guys and tell them to do stuff.

Nah dude, splitting is pretty hard to be honest. Even C/B ranked players screw up their splits pretty often. Its a bunch of accurate clicking in a really quick time frame as shit is moving.
If you wanna play without computer you can either go Multiplayer LAN UDP and kick comp in countdown or you can turn on power overwhelming and then send your normal scout scv to go attack comps nexus. It wont bother you for the rest of the game.
