Default Re: HELP: Why is PR different on URL when capitalized instead of Lowercase ?

I would assume yes, but I would be interested to get some confirmation.

If we assume all the PR is coming from internal links, this is a safe bet, isn't it?

But if some of the PR is coming from external links and they are coming to domain.com/PageName.html, will Google pass that PR onto domain.com/pagename.html?

What do you think?
  1. Programmatically it is a simple task, but is there a
  2. semantic difference?
