Yep, most of us have done lots of work with uncalibrated displays.

It's only after you finally have some confidence in what you are doing. For 
example, I don't see how you can fine tune white balance for a raw photo if 
your display is not neutral.Delta-E < 5 is probably good enough for me.

Stephen,

Please reconsider the use of the combination of the words  "reasonably 
accurate" and "not expensive". 

I ran macbooks uncalibrated for years and never had any severe printing issues. 
If you have real screens and real needs and a desire for future proofing, then 
maybe you should just swallow the expense for a colormunki spectro (not the 
colorimeter)
