I have two TI Silent 700s, both claim to be model 743 KSRs. One of them
only produces upper case. The other does lower case with small caps.
Did any model Silent 700 ever do "true" lower-case, with descenders and
ascenders, as opposed to small-caps only?

I had some users back in the day when I supported Silent 700's who
complained about the
lack of descenders for some projects we had, so in some models there was
a problem. I
never heard that it was resolved in any of the ones I saw. I don't have
or remember model
numbers any more, but my collection of units supported ranged from the
300 baud with and
without acoutic couplers to the units with bubble memory, and 1200 buad
modems, etc.

Aha! Following up on my own message...
I've seen some mention that the TI Silent 700 Model 785 did true upper
and lower case.
Now that I've established that, does anyone have a model 785 that they
can confirm this with? Better yet, anyone have one they'd be willing to
sell? ;)
