Already got the baSysFolder route covered, just working out which folder to
use.
 baSysFolder("prefs") is a good place to store a settings file
So that would return the "Windows" folder on Windows and the "Preferences"
folder on the Mac. Will there be any user account restrictions writing to
the Preferences folder?

can't speak for the win platform, but for the mac 
platform you get the current users preferences 
folder with write permissions. (which is the 
purpose of the prefs folder to provide a place, 
where applications can savely store preferences . 
hence the name ;-)
