    It doesn't stick out if that's what you mean. But the battery is heavier.

    UPDATE: I just asked a Dell rep and he said it weights the same as the 6 cell.

    While I haven't used a 9-cell battery on an inspiron, I can say that it most likely isn't too big. I have a latitude d420 with a 9-cell battery and it is perfectly practical.
