You can produce an HDR from a single RAW file as well by svaing copies of the original at three different exposure settings and then combine them to an HDR with either photoshop or photomatix.
Here is my favourite from a single RAW file Canon 400D and 18-55mm kit lense created with Photomatix

You can almost feel the paint chipping away in this photo. Another good shot. Now how long does it take you to process an image like this? Would you mind sharing the steps? 1 image or 3?
Thank you!

1/250th sec at F4.5 with 55mm focal length
A single RAW file shot then I produced three tif files at -2, 0 and +2 exposure
then created an HDR with photomatix and altered it to black and white in photoshop.
My hdr set on Flickr is here http://www.flickr.com/photos/fixedwheelnut/sets/72157617785242477/
The beauty of using a single RAW file is that you can even create HDR pics of action shots as well.
Just experiment and have a go.
