Now that the further set of upgrades have been give the go ahead, a new upgrade configuration will be done in each area - so again at the end of the work, each area is the same.

Swapping to a different configuration halfway or three quarters of the way through a project introduces complexity that would increase costs.
I do understand that starting a project then changing half-way through would needlessly add unnecessary expense but surely this strategy wasn't just decided in the last 2 weeks?

I'm not just trolling, BTW, due to get Virgin bb (120Mb) again in the next few weeks. Just thought it seemed a bit stupid that upgrades in this area had "just" completed.
