Adobe PS is way out of my price bracket. My old Canon A5 did RAW out of the box, but that is progress for you. I even tried its converter and it would not touch the files.

AFAIWA CHDK just allows a RAW image to be saved as well. As you state, it is not exactly a Canon duplicate or would not appear to be.

The problem I had was, I read up all about CHDK in the UK, but bought my camera in the USA and did not get it for a few weeks after that, and only had a few days to try it out diving.

As the pictures are so big, I've uploaded them to my webspace at Index of /paul.steel/Canon.
I've uploaded a jpeg and its equivalent RAW image for comparison.

Feel free to download and play around with them.
 
A nice free tool that supports many raw formats is:
Fasstone Image viewer

And a really nice shareware one for raw with lots of raw edit capabilities:
Raw Therapee

I used DNG4PS-2 to convert my Canon SD850IS CHDK raw images into DNG format
and then used Raw Therapee from there.
For some reason the FastStone viewer didn't support the 850 CHDK RAW images.
