The 501 would definitely be a good edition for a home lab, considering the price of a 501 is much lower than that of an ASA. You will not have all of the features but you can still pick up most of the fundamentals. The command syntax is a little bit different in the 7.0 code but not enough to deter you from buying a 501 w/ 6.3 code.
