At the same time, it's perfectly possible to forgo all of that: Take
well exposed pictures with a quality camera, print them unaltered on a
good printer; don't mess with color balance on the monitor, either by
clalibrating your decent monitor or changing curves, levels by RGB, or
levels at all.
Oh, forgot, JPEGs are not the spawn of Satan.

Yes, you can forgo all that an not be able to have repeablity and work
with standard and print anywhere but if that' all you need for your
crappy little snapshots, enjoy.
PS. JPES are not the spawn of Satan, not even he would product such
an abomination.

No matter how it ends, there is a workflow to get you there and this is
just good workflow. Most of it is intuitive anyway. For ten years I
took in files customers wanted printed digitally , on film recorders
and wide format. I wish alot of them followed those simple directions.
BTW I love the RAW files from my D200, but I've used jpegs on almost
every other camera, I've used.
