How do Italians typically resolve the issue of entering uppercase vowels with diacritics on a PC (Windows or Linux) with an Italian keyboard, given that these are missing from the printed text appearing on the keys and by default cannot entered via Shift (also known on Italian keyboards as the Maiusc key), Ctrl, Alt key combinations (unless some modification is made to the default layout with the Microsoft MSKLC application)? On Windows 7 I have tried both the Italiano and the Italiano (142) keyboards and both lack this functionality by default. I cannot understand why those who created these keyboard layouts, however long ago that may be, never thought about adding key combinations for inserting uppercase Italian vowels with diacritics.

Thanks.
