ok, 4 bits not just 2... Be frugal with the patches and don't take just *anything* that looks like a good fix. What you want is a more stable version, meaning less changes as time goes forward. I know it's the first couple days, but it looks like it could easily go the other way... Anyway, I hope this helps.
