Visio SP 1 Administrator Install Questions

I heard in email from a blog user asking:

1) How best to determine what SP is installed?

2) How to determine the path to where the app is installed (is there a reg key separate from the office key)?

Sounded like a pretty common question that IT admins might have so I wanted to post the response in the blog.
