G'day 'Crappers. I'm wondering if one of you might be able to help me out in an attempt to find a piece of my youth.
Back when I was about 4-5 years old (1986-1987) I had a white piano/keyboard (I realize that's not a toy) that used to keep me entertained for hours. I want to say it was Casio-made, but I'm not sure. It was about 1/4 the size of an actual keyboard, had green and red lights that allowed you to play along with the songs, which were on these slim black cartridges that you popped in the top right corner of the keyboard. I remember there were four songs on the cartridge (Whitney Houston's "I Wanna Dance With Somebody", Bananarama's "Venus" and Billy Ocean's "Carribbean Queen" are the three I remember).
Did anybody else have this or remember it growing up? Any help would be appreciated.

that's really vauge. Keyboards in the 80s were a dime a dozen and they all had these functions.

I dunno how many had preprogrammed pop songs in them, though. Plenty had songs for demos, not so many with Billy Ocean (which is a frickin' crime!), even in cartridge form.
EDIT: Did this also have a sampling function?
