MAS and Carma are likely the best options. However, if you want full-featured CMS for $500 which supports unlimited sites out of the box, gives you full source access and offers solid support, I believe Xtract (http://www.ecoders.biz) is your best bet.

SiteDepth looks to be very nice as well, but I did not contact them because of lack-of-support complaints. Note - to get the source for SD you have to pay $4000.
