Just found that the code says "The existence of a limited liability company begins upon the filing of the articles of organization." Can I read this literally,

  Yes; if there's something wrong with your application or the check doesn't clear you'll get a letter warning you to rectify the problem or see the registration canceled. If you're not going to use an attorney, which you should, then at least write/email the SoS office to verify specifics like this. Don't forget you'll also need a city or county business license, will need to file a fictitious name statement and have it published in a newspaper of record, and so on. How much of your time will these tasks consume, and is that time worth more than the cost of having it done by a licensed professional? IANAL btw but there are several California lawyers here on HN.
