Yeah, the 7D has dual processors, right? Another reason to move up to a better body.
Yeah, 7D is dual Ps.

Tell me where to get that codec. Can you view the file full screen and zoom in on the details, like with a jpeg file?

The camera's buffer size and speed is really important as well as the file size. With my 5D MkII the RAW +jpeg is usually in the 25MB to 30MB per image, so a 90mb/s card is only good for three images. My 7D will shoot unlimited 5MB jpegs and never bog, but who wants that? I find that burst of three or four usually get the job done.
