Well generally speaking - yes, but on the other hand you must remember that the processor in your camera was made specifically for image processing. Sometimes, a dedicated-for-the-task processor will do much better (in terms of speed) than a "general processor" like the one you have in your personal computer. Anyhow, I still doubt that Canon DIGIC is more powerful than my desktop PC but who knows I might be wrong (again I really really doubt that I'm wrong).
