-	4) Test #1: Run the NiViewer sample to make sure depth & image streams are working.
-	5) Test #2: Run the OpenNI/NiUserTracker sample play with the skeleton. Don't forget to start with the calibration pose! (Explained in the PDFs)
-	6) Test #3: Try the NITE/Sample-PointViewer sample for the hand tracking demo.

-	For Mac/Linux, you will need to install the latest LibUSB.
-	Linux:
-		1) Run: sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev
-		2) Run: sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev
-	MaxOSX:
-		1) Intall MacPorts from: http://distfiles.macports.org/MacPorts/MacPorts-1.9.2-10.6-SnowLeopard.dmg
-		2) Run: sudo port install libtool
-		3) Run: sudo port install libusb-devel +universal
-		   Note: Do not forget the +universal, it's very important!!
-		   If you're previously already installed libusb-devel then use "sudo port uninstall libusb-devel" and reinstall it again with the +universal flag.

-		Nutshell Mac OpenNi/Kinect install for DUMMIES: 
-		This job is going to take ONE DAY. It will be SLOW. Your computer is 
-		going to run a long time. 
-		You need to be running OS X 10.6, Xcode installed, there may be some 
-		recent-hardware constraint. 
-		You will install Git, Mac Ports libtool, libusb-devel, OpenNi, 
-		SensorKinect, and Nite in that order. 
-
-		- Install Git from http://git-scm.com/, use it to download 
-		SensorKinect from github: 
-		- run "git clone git://github.com/avin2/SensorKinect.git" 
-		- Get and *read* the README in SensorKinect. Keep that README open, it 
-		explains what is happening here. 
-		- Do a clean install of Mac Ports. Uninstall an existing Macports 
-		first. 
-		- run "sudo port install libtool +universal" 
-		- run "sudo port install libusb-devel +universal" 
-		- download OpenNi unstable:  http://www.openni.org/downloadfiles/openni-binaries/20-latest-unstable 
-		- run as sudo the OpenNi unstable binaries install.sh script 
-		- run as sudo the SensorKinect install.sh script 
-		- download Nite unstable: 
-		http://www.openni.org/downloadfiles/openni-compliant-middleware-binar... 
-		- edit the three Nite DATA XML files to 640x480 
-		- run as sudo the Nite install.sh script. License key is 
-		"0KOIk2JeIBYClPWVnMoRKn5cdY4=" 
-
-		Bravo! You should be done installing! As a reward, you now get to 
-		test: 
-		- go to the Nite tree, and in Samples/bin you have a bunch of binaries 
-		that just got built. 
-		- plug in the Kinect power supply, then the USB plug of the Kinect 
-		bar. Run the Box sample.
