    Just wondering but I want a spare battery (or one to use in the smart bay) I heard for 15 extra bucks I can go from 6 cells to 9 what sort of difference is there between the two? Will it stick out? How much longer will a 9 cell last?

    yes the 9 cell will stick out of the m15x. im guessing you can get around 1 hour extra if you are on the dedicated gpu. maybe 1 hr 30 if you are on integrated.

    there's been a lot of talk lately about a 9 cell battery... But up until this point, I don't think anyone has actually been able to buy it.

    So noone knows.
