    Anyone know the dimensions with the 9-cell battery. I assume it makes the laptop a bit taller at the back, but how much by?

    The 9-cell adds about an inch to the back of my machine.

    Since the laptop already has a slight incline by default -- from 1" in the front to 1 ¼" in the back -- the 9-cell extends the height at the rear of the machine to 2 ¼".

    And for anyone wondering, the 9-cell does not add any width to the back of the machine, just height when laying flat (which helps tremendously with air flow).
