The benefit of shooting raw is that it provides you a MUCH higher level of control in your images. If you really care about the quality of the images you are producing, it is well worth your time to learn how to properly use raw files and proper processing thereof. I suggest the Bruce Fraser book "Real World Camera Raw" (don't quote me on the title, but that's close). I know I always recommend this book, but there's a reason for it. If you internalize the info in this book and apply it properly you will have an incredible amount of control over your images. Granted, it requires you to have Photoshop CS3 and preferably Bridge as well, but since most of /p/ is running pirated copies of their software anyway that shouldn't be a problem.
Other options for raw processing are programs like Aperture, Lightroom, and Capture One. Of those, I like Capture One best.
