My PSR500 is now about 6 yrs old. I still love it. It`s simply fun to play with it. As a hobby musician I can`t afford expensive equipment, but the PSR 500 is a very nice way to catch my ideas very fast. I wish only I`d find a good program for exporting the MIDI-Dump. Another drawback is that there is no DISK-Drive like in the PSR600. Yes it IS a bit old but I love it´s piano and string sounds. Sometimes I wish it had weighted keys and 81 of them but then again I don`t have the space for it. However it is a very nice keyboard for that price and good for beginners.

I saw this synth sitting onstage in a little church building a few weeks ago, and a quick gaze at the controls made me assume it was a toy.
I was wrong.
It's got some cheesy aspects to it, and yeah, it's pretty dated, but it's very responsive and just a general joy to jam on. The pianos and e-pianos are particularly nice: The sounds are not _accurate_, really, but they're _well done_. This keyboard's poor little sampled sounds are hands-down more fun than some of the thin, oversanitized stuff I've heard recorded from synthesizers costing thousands.
Not a professional tool, probably, but ahead of its time and fun to play. (-:
