The patch that Blizzard released for StarCraft: Brood War improves compatibility with all supported versions of Windows, and makes other improvements such as support for windowed fullscreen or windowed mode, UPnP support, multiplayer and performance improvements.
You find downloads of the game for PC and Mac on the patch page. Just download the 3 Megabyte installer, and follow the instructions to download the full game and have it installed on your machine.
StarCraft: Brood War continues the story of the original StarCraft campaign and introduces new campaigns, units, graphics, effects and more in the process.
Blizzard plans to release a remastered version of the original StarCraft game soon. What's interesting from a gamer's perspective is that the classic StarCraft supports multiplayer, and that classic and remastered gamers will be able to play each other online. It is unclear why Blizzard decided to release the original StarCraft and its Brood War expansion for free. One possible explanation is that it wants to convince a couple of new players, and maybe even old players who all but forgot about StarCraft to give it a try to get them in the right mood for the upcoming remastered edition of the game.
The gameplay is as good as ever, but the look and feel of the game is ripe for an overhaul. That's what the remastered edition will bring to the table, as it introduces support for higher resolutions among other things. So, whether you want to relive childhood memories by playing through the StarCraft campaign once more, battle friends in multiplayer, or simply experience one of the most respected RTS games of all times, you will have a blast with this one.

That version will feature 4K graphics support and improved online matchmaking for multiplayer sessions.

The on-screen widgets are quite useful for emulating several PC functions like keyboard hotkeys, mouse right-clicks etc. You can move the display box around by dragging it, and whatever space is left can be used to add widgets to it. To add a widget, simply tap the empty space around the display box and choose from various options, such as a configurable keyboard hot key, zoom, panning etc.
