I don't like the analogy with Windows, because you still have \System and
the registry which may hold data installed by your program. In any case,
programs installed on /Programs will be available to all users.

The global settings of each program are copied to
/Programs/ProgramName/Settings.

Most programs have support for user settings. The directory under $HOME
where they will save these settings varies, though (just type "ls -a" on
your home directory and you'll get the picture).

No, there is no out-of-the-box support for mixing installation prefixes --
unless you install Rootless and manage $PATH by yourself.
