Installing MySQL on Vista

What is the best way to install MySQL on Vista?

I'm assuming the expected location is under Program Files, like any other
program. But since Vista won't let any program write to the program files
directory, it automatically copies the databases to a subdirectory under
Users\Bob\AppData\...VirtualStore\Program Files\MySQL\Data\ for example.

If another user logs in to the computer, those databases don't exist for
him, which makes it a little tough if you want to use the same data
regardless of how you log in!

This is all solved by installing MySQL directly off the root, i.e.,
c:\MySQL\, but I'm not sure that's really the "right" way to do things.

Any ideas? Recommendations?

Thanks

Van
