I rarely shoot raw, most shooting I do is casual and fun, If I'm doing a job for someone, I'll shoot raw, or if I want something serious, I'll shoot raw. But by and large with all the casual fun shooting I do, the benefit Raw offers me is not worth the added time, steps and energy in my workflow. Then again, I also have to use Lightroom to process my raws, because my CS2 does not work with my A700 raws, and on my old computer (First generation Athlon X2 dual core) the workflow takes quite a bit of extra time over JPEG. If I had a brand new Intel QX9900 or something of the sorts, and CS3, I would certainly do a lot more RAW shooting. 90% of my shooting is JPEG for this reason. If I had the brand new quad core with CS3, I would probably do 50% JPEG shooting or less.
