It is "a" part of Penn. Penn is far broader than just one college or school. I spent a lot of time there. I walked past Wharton many times on the way to other classes. What else am I confused about, do you suppose?

You nailed it, once more. This is the whole issue, IMHO. Some manufactuers and importers of ACs to Thailand count of the fact that most ACs here are rarely used. Most just sit there, for show, demonstrating to neighbors that the owner has enough money to buy an AC. But, do they have enough money or will to actually run the AC whenever the temp gets above 23, or when the relative humidity gets above 55%? If these same machines were installed in a country such as the USA, and in Arizona, I just wonder how long they might last. Arizona is not a place where most people are afraid to run their ACs. Also, where was that Panaxonic manufactured? Thailand? Malaysia? China? Japan? This would be very helpful to know. And, what is the EER or SEER rating on the machine? If the machine is made in Japan, then it will be very reliable, and feel free to use it as much as you want, without a machine failure. But, if not? I would be very worried.

Such a thing has never happened to me. This is all that I know.

I am confused. You are saying that I obviously know nothing about what, exactly?

Not Penn, really. Wharton is not Penn, you know. Trump would have been hopeless at the Moore School of Electrical Engineering.

Well.... It is not that they attack in packs. It's only that farang in Thailand are, clearly, outnumbered, by about 50 to one. If you have one Farang, and 50 Thai people, then it only LOOKS like they are attacking in packs. Note: Nobody will attack you if you behave according to local customs, and if you treat others with respect. Same goes for anywhere. Some people choose not to be respectful. Why?

Haha.... Maybe Trump is just trying to stamp out cronyism, once and for all. Get rid of Harvard, and then we can also get rid of the majority of the government. What a joke. (I mean, the gov, as it is now.)

Penn is better. Or, if you don't like Penn, then just go to Princeton. I never liked Harvard, much. The culture at Harvard is not good. There are better schools. MIT CalTech Penn Columbia In fact, I would dearly like to see Harvard go down the drain. That Kennedy School of Government, or whatever, is totally obnoxious.

Not necessarily....maybe. In my opinion, Panasonic can regain the lead. Just as Secretariat always did. Take a look at this amazing horse, for example. Brings a tear to the eye, for sure.... Tell me if I am not mistaken....

If/when you have the opportunity to check, it might be interesting to know where these breakdowns were manufactured. Just a thought.

Thank you. Probably the most valuable comment in this entire glorious Topic. Hopefully, any readers, here, will take heed. However, being a glutton for punishment, myself, I think I will try Panasonic (Thailand), one more time.... Tomorrow, Saturday. I plan to buy...yet another one. The most expensive one they offer in Thailand. Mind you: ONLY... for auld lang syne..... And: Maybe for a bit of kindness and PITY I feel for Panasonic (Thailand)....who knows....

DO IT AGAIN.....!!!!!!!!!! Back, again, Jack....!!!!!!!! I love Panasonic. Love sick, maybe.... Tomorrow, I will try, again.....

Did you think that I did not realize this? (That I am insane?) Anyway, on a more serious vein, seriously: Efficiency TRUMPS Mitsubishi. ((Just hope this Topic does not get removed to the Political-Soapbox sub-forum...!!)) Panasonic is still the highest-efficiency machine available in Thailand, as far as I know. The Panasonic engineering is great. However, I will not say much concerning execution of the engineering during production. I will repeat my past mistakes for two reasons: a. Nostalgia b. I will gamble upon the possibility that I just might get a winner, this time. I will never buy a machine that does not have a SEER above 20. Have you checked those Mitsubishi machines? You need to check the SEER on those plodders. Panasonic engineering is amazing. They design a thoroughbred. And then, its up to the plodders in Malaysia to do the execution, reliably. Have they been able to execute, thus far? IDK. Still, I guess I do not care. I still love the brand, for whatever crazy reason.

Please keep in mind..... In our day and age....especially age.... Almost everything is disposable... Can't go back, Jack... The die is cast.... Anyway, tomorrow I will buy another Panasonic. I never learn from some of my bad mistakes..... ((Same machine....haha...because....it's the best in Thailand...which just might not be saying too much...but who am I to say?))
