The significance is that you may be able to use Sharp service literature to
service the Mitsubishi product. Also you can buy Sharp parts from
distributors at dealer cost and you have to buy Mitsubishi parts from
Mitsubishi and pay list price if you are not an ASC plus a hefty shipping
and handling charge.
