Just to chime in.  Many installation routines look only in the Application 
folder to see if there is a previous version installed.  If you put your apps 
in a random folder, these routines may be confused.  

BUT, it seems that they all look at the Applications folder AND all sub-folders 
of the Applications folder.  (Maybe that is why Utilities is a sub-folder of 
Applications?)

What I do is make a new folder called LocalApps that is a subfolder of 
Applications.  (So its address is /Applications/LocalApps).  I put all the 
user-added stuff in LocalApps to keep it segregated from the Apple standard 
files in Applications and /Applications/Utilities.

Shades of NeXTstep.
