Wow! They lied! hahaha. Well the flash issue for me in no big deal. I am one of the few on here that plays for fun and not for a living. I play another kind of keyboard for a living. ha-ha Although they should have told customers of the change to the specifications of the board as soon as they changed it. I believe that could come back to haunt them in the future. Not a very honest and forthcoming company. Did some of the Casio people start working for Yamaha?

If it makes you guys feel any better and I believe some of you probably know this anyways, they most likely socketed the rom chips. The main reason is they are cheap! By this I mean, if they have to upgrade a few thousand boards, its cheaper to pop out a couple chips than replace a whole card. My replacement already has the 1.20 chips in it but then its probably a couple months newer than most. There should be one chip for the BIOS and one for the OS (software). I could take the back cover off and look but I really don't think its all that important. No reason why any of you could not do a chip upgrade yourself. Its not difficult and takes only a few seconds.

Still like my PSR2000. My gripe with it has been mainly the cosmetics and construction which I believe is very cheaply made. Makes my Casio WK-1800 look professional! ha-ha But I still am hooked on it. However, I probably will go with another brand next time I buy. This whole thing from the chips to the sharing of styles has hardened me to buy anymore Yamaha stuff. Gee, I go and change from Casio and I get Casio still? Did Yamaha and Casio merge or something?
