The command line is only danger if you know the danger commands ;-) But
you are right, the way over the "Go" Menu is the smarter one.

True. But if you don't know the danger commands, you don't know if the command you are being
told to implement is safe. ;-)

This video gives unnecessary instructions. There is no need to use Terminal to access the user
library. It is readily accessible in Finder. In fact, Terminal should only be used by someone
who understands it and how to use the command line.
Instructions an resetting the profile are available on the forum.
http://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=74&t=12426
For Mac users:
/Users/<user name>/Library/Application Support/OpenOffice/4/user or /Users/<user
name>/Library/Application Support/OpenOffice.org/3/user
NB: on OS X version 10.7.xx (Lion), or newer, the user/library can be accessed in finder by
holding down the option key an clicking on Go on the menubar. Then select the user library.
This is one of nineteen ways to see the user library. See 18 ways to view the ~/Library
folder in Lion

Nice. If we had a Windows and Linux version too, we could link to it
from the 4.0 Release Notes, in the "Known Issues".
And we could also link, from the same page, to another video that
explains how to get past GateKeeper and install OpenOffice.
Regards,
Andrea.
