If you fill six bunkers with marines and back them up with turrets up there, that'll keep off anything you get against you if you have two or three auto-repairing SCVs (watch out for muta splash, as that will kill repairing SCVs after a while. Having one medic hanging back can be an idea if it turns into a problem). Wait until it's four or so minutes left, and move out with a MASSIVE ball of marines and medics. Medics are important, I ran with a 1:3 medic/marine ratio. Constantly pumping SCVs is also pretty damn important - without doing that, getting enough units will probably be impossible.
The way I did it, I went for the leftmost hatches first, and then the top left ones, there's two hatches on each spot. Whenever you run into a spine crawler, you will loose marines, so you'll want to be pumping reinforcements non-stop.
Also remember to save, and reload if something went terribly wrong (a bunker went down/you overextended and lost half your marines etc.). Reloading doesn't fuck up the achievements, as far as I know.

Good advice. Also, it's important to note that an earlier attack is better than waiting until you're maxed out. The zerg continually masses both units and extra spine crawlers over time (and will rebuild them).
snalin:
it depends on how fast you are able to macro up. I think that an ideal time to attack might be right after picking up the last survivors, as that gives you a extra boost to your army size, but is still before the PC starts making crawlers all over the place (On brutal, you get the things coming up just bellow your damned ramp in the ending minutes).

So I decided to grab some easy achievements by doing custom games
cut to 4 hours later I decide to take a 'break' with some new featured RPG
2 hours after that it's 1:45 in the morning and I want to keep playing.
that's the starcraft I know and love
