Pretty much. I don't really see the problem though. You're also getting regular snapshots, which is yet another thing you have to build in that colo setup (and where are your backups going?). This is not for personal projects or shoestring-budget non-profits where you're willing to volunteer time, it's for businesses and decent paying work, where two hundred dollars is one man-hour of totally compensated labor.
