Get a PC/Mac to do the processing instead?

This is my first post.

I've been thinking (and probably because I don't know much about the subject) but everybody's talking about real RAW filming. It probably is too much for the camera processor to process on the spot. My thought is: is it possible to have Magic Lantern on a computer instead of the cam so it works like a Canon EOS Utility? And maybe, let the computer process the footage instead of the camera? Maybe then real RAW filming could be possible with an EOS?! What if we could record right unto the computer and we're not limited to 12 min of recording!

I think I got excited.. anyway.. What do you think? Possible?!

No,
I never saw a RAW video file, but surely it is bigger than what the usb cable can handle.
There are other problems too like that ML can't access to raw data since it's not a software encoding but something hardware related.
I'm using ML2.3 for photography with:
EOS 600DML | EOS 400Dplus | EOS 5D MLbeta5- EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro  - EF-S 17-85mm f4-5.6 IS USM - EF 70-200mm f/4 L USM - 580EXII - OsX, PS, LR, RawTherapee, LightZone -no video experience-
