Wait a minute. Please excuse my ignorance (I'm still new to this Mac stuff) but you're telling me when I dragged the OO icon from the install .dmg file to the "Applications" folder in Finder, it didn't install OO in Applications but in the home directory in a hidden directory instead?

EDIT: Scratch that. I re-read your post. I get it now. Sorry for the confusion. It's NOT cool that OO installs itself in a hidden directory in "Applications".

Peace...
