Default RPM's???? 600 RPM too low?

Excuse the noobie question but what should the idle at rest a 2000 2.7 Boxster. I just had an O2 sensor replaced and the RPMs feel too low and quiet. Idles at 600 RPM with or wothout AC on once warm to 180. Is this normal? Maybe it's fixed and I'm just being paranoid. Or possible other O2 sensor or MAF??

I have a 2001, and it idles about 750. 600 does seem a bit low. I would have thought the engine computer would set the idle rate ??
