Huh? I've repaired a lot of power supplies over the years, and never
encountered one where anywhere near $200 in parts was required.

The value of the power supply is nothing compared to the value of the
education it could provide. When I started repairing things, I learned by
working on equipment that was mostly pretty worthless, some of it I fixed,
some of it I broke worse, the odds steadily improved with practice. You've
gotta start somewhere.

That is EXACTLY what I am talking about ! (just written better lol)
