Yes, this breaks with the past, but I think this is the way things 
should go.  Pd should be made to behave like a native app on each 
platform.  On Windows, programs are installed in Program Files, so Pd 
should be also.

With Miller's 0.37 installer and my 0.37 installer, you don't need to 
know where to put Pd in order to install it.  Both installers 
automatically install into a default location.  I don't remember, is 
your tutorial online somewhere?  It would great to have in on 
pure-data.org.
