(Yeah, after seeing your screens I know it looks like crap, but like Loose I'm happy to be playing the game at all)
Infestors are just insane. Neural Parasite for powerful units like Thors and Carriers, Fungal Growth for weak organic units like Zealots and Marines, and if all else fails mass summons. Best spellcaster yet.
I'm really impressed with Starcrack 6.1. Hackers scripted this together in what, a week? It actually puts up a good fight and lets you try different strategies. It's still pretty stupid - I see workers trying to scout where I have a bunch of Roaches lined up, and then running back and forth for no apparent reason. It tries to follow single units around instead of focusing on the most important targets. But at this point it's probably better than the Blizzard-coded Brood War AI (lol army of workers following you to your base), so again, really impressed.
I have 19 idle workers and 5000+ unused minerals because I wasted a couple minutes building a Nydus Worm into their base just for the hell of it and my first mineral field just ran out.
I don't particularly like the Zerg AI. It's just constantly spamming Zerglings and Roaches. If it actually finds out you have air though, it'll make Mutalisks and Corrupters, which are fairly annoying if you don't match them in numbers.
It's much better than the Brood War AI. They'll attack things that block their path to get to things like Bunkers or Photon Cannons instead of walk back and forth. And they actually fortify up their tech tree if they're given time.

[/spoiler]Top right. Those bricks. They're not buildings. They're Carriers. Try as they might, Carriers win the game. Unless you have an equal number of Carriers, or more Void Rays, God forbid, it's game over.
What's everyone think of Battle Cruisers? They seem quite weak comparatively to Carriers in my opinion.
My preferred route with Terran now is Air-to-Ground with Banshees, supported by Ravens for Point-Defense & Detection, and some Vikings for Air-to-Air. Banshees are extremely cheap and effective, especially compared to Cruisers if you're just going in for Ground sweeping, and they can cloak. Fully upgraded, they do 15x2 Normal compared to what 12 Fast of a Cruiser?
