Sounds like you've already got your mind made up bro. If you're comfortable enough to lay the floor down yourself, go for it. As long as you have basic woodworking skills, you shouldn't have too many problems. I agree that the finishing should probably be left up to someone who does it on a regular basis. A real nice floor could be ruined by not getting a nice finish on it.
Good luck. Take some pictures when you're done and let us see the finished product.
