Ouch.  That was too much for a r5k-180.  If it was a r5k-200 (the real
thing, not the overclocked one) you'd be much happier (though I still
would have thought it wasn't a great deal).  Do you at least have the AV
option?

Yeah, the Ultra10 would have been a much better deal, unless you had a
darn good reason the O2 would be a better choice (at this point, if they
were equally priced I'd go for an O2 if it had an AV module, otherwise
it would be a toss up determined by what I felt like at the moment).
