Does anybody know if I tried to install Openoffice to "/home/*/OpenOffice1.1/" would it install it in everybodys home directory? Would the installed version work?

OK, there's two things here. Either you can do:
for i in $(ls -1 /home/* | grep -v test3 samdea anix); do cp -r /some/working/config /home/$i/.some_location && chown -R $i.groupname; done
Or....
you could have a central configuration say in /opt which is set to:
chmod o+rwx
which is then a symlink in each user's $HOME.
Does that answer your question?
