Definitely, if the 500 is good then why go backwards with old tech. If the 500 is limited then get a 2500 instead.

What he^^ said! You are a power user, so buy more firepower in the 2500!!

500 for xl is steep, shouldnt be more than 300-400 I watched 2500 sell on ebay the other day for 720...for 5 bills you can pick up 1k

newer mpcs are much faster/convenient to work on, also keep in mind xl's screens eventually burn out and need to be replaced and cost almost as much as second hand xl that is if you can find one
