I think Warcraft II edges out C&C because of the AI.  In the 
multi player games the AI in WCII will build bases and expand 
them.  It is much more challanging than C&C.  I've also noticed
that WCII is slightly more stable in modem play.
Just my 2 cents (hoping Westwood will read this and make a 
more challenging AI:)
