Developing your own black and white film is a lot easier than you might 
think.  There are a lot of "how to" sites on the Web.  Here are a couple.

You will either find the process rewarding or a hassle.  I find it 
enjoyable.  Are you going to scan or print your negatives?

Chromogenic B&W films an alternative to traditional silver emulsions. 
They 
are processed in C-41 chemistry, so you can drop them off at the nearest 
minilab and get negatives and prints.  Use the prints as proofs and print
or 
scan the negatives.  Here's an article.
