    I have a question for vostro 1400 owners regarding the battery. Is it loosely connected? Is it a big problem?

    Thanks

    It's not bad at all. Everyone who is complaining about it is just being a baby.

    i have a 9 cell and it does shake a bit. i would say the space between the battery and the case is about 4 paper thick. when you look at, its fine, but you do feel it when you move it. its not big of a deal. its not going to fall out if thats what you are asking.
    on the side note, i heard that it cant read xd card.
