We've all been waiting to see what the X100 can do in RAW, but have been unable to open the samples in any programs.
In this thread, http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/readflat.asp?forum=1020&thread=37858823, a special patched version of a RAW converter was used to convert the RAWs to PNG.
I downloaded those PNGs, and converted them to TIFF in iPhoto. Then used Lightroom 3 and Photoshop CS4 to process the TIFF like any RAW file -- denoise, sharpening, adjusting exposure, color, contrast, etc.
For those worried that the X100 produces soft, flat images -- rest assured -- the RAWs can deliver the goods.
Here is a link to download the "before" (unprocessed TIFF) http://db.tt/uM3tnCm and the "after" (post-processed TIFF) http://db.tt/dvXlxHS
For those who don't want to download 60 MB of TIFFs, here's a SmugMug gallery with "before" and "after" post-processing JPGs and 100% crops. http://thebrandons.smugmug.com/Other/Samples-for-forums/16033956_UayYD#1203198900_bYuCD
