People who repair things are a dying breed.

I fully agree.  Totally off-topic, but anybody here know of a course
or books one could buy on basic electronic repairs. Thinking in lines
of PSU etc to start with. I've been long wanting to enter this as a
hobby project of mine, but I have no idea where to start. I am so
stick of buying new PSU or other power adapters, when there is

I'd advise against fiddling with switch mode PSUs. The way it is now is that simple ones are too cheap for anybody to bother repairing. But then they turn out to be pretty crap (due to the cheapness). Repair cables and connectors, perhaps even replace bulging capacitors, but apart from that, this is not hobby material!
