Which is the operating systhem of the physicist?
Say yours.
Say yours.

"So began a three-month exploration of Mars. For a team of hundreds of scientists and engineers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Spirit is serving as our eyes-and our toolbox, using the tools at the tip of its foldaway arm-during a new chapter in the exploration of our neighbor planet. As is Spirit's twin, Opportunity, which duplicated Spirit's performance three weeks later on the opposite side of Mars. And what are all those scientists and engineers using to drive the rovers? They are using Linux."

Then why do they look worse?Mk said:I use my Mac for gaming, after all the graphics are sooo much better.![]()
I you played DOOM 3 or Halo 2 on a dual-core G5, they would be mind-blowing.Then why do they look worse?
The PCI Express architecture means you can install up to four graphics cards in your Power Mac G5 — for connecting up to eight Apple Cinema Displays.(1) Imagine viewing high-resolution satellite images across an array of displays. Or consider controlling a suite of public information kiosks or a multimedia museum exhibit from a single Power Mac G5 system.

Bring detailed worlds to life with the NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500. One of the most advanced graphics cards available, it has an integrated stereo 3D port, so scientists can use stereo goggles for stereo-in-a-window visualization applications.(2)
The Quadro FX 4500 includes hardware support for anti-aliased points and lines, accelerated clip planes, and two-sided lighting, making it an ideal choice for the most advanced design and visualization applications. And since it has two dual-link DVI ports, you can connect two 30-inch Apple Cinema HD Displays for the largest workspace with a single graphics card.
It's not the OS that determines the graphics, it what hardware the OS can support. I use Windows XP, and it can milk as much power out of my $300 graphics card as any Mac can.Mk said:I you played DOOM 3 or Halo 2 on a dual-core G5, they would be mind-blowing.
Oh look:

I dare any Windows-loving graphics artist to read that page and not commit suicide.
Indeed, but trust me, the Ghost Recon graphics are even better. While Call of Duty 2 was fantastic, Ghost Recon was mind-boggling.Mk said:I played Call of Duty 2 trial, the graphics were awesooome!
A physicist's operating system is a set of tools, techniques, and theories that help them understand and manipulate the physical world around us. It includes mathematical models, experimental methods, and analytical approaches to study and solve problems in physics.
A physicist's operating system is a framework for understanding the physical world, while a computer operating system is a software that manages a computer's hardware and software resources. In other words, a physicist's operating system is used to study and explain natural phenomena, while a computer operating system is used to control a machine.
Some examples of a physicist's operating system include classical mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, and relativity. These theories provide a foundation for understanding and predicting the behavior of matter and energy at different scales and in different contexts.
Scientists use a physicist's operating system to guide their research and experiments. They apply the theories and principles to make predictions, test hypotheses, and develop new technologies. They also use it to create mathematical models and simulations to better understand complex systems and phenomena.
Yes, a physicist's operating system is constantly evolving as new discoveries and advancements are made in the field of physics. New theories and technologies can challenge and expand existing ideas, leading to updates and revisions in the operating system. This allows scientists to continue exploring and understanding the physical world in more detail.
