    I don't know whether I should get the 6 cell battery or the 9 cell.

    Hi FlexFit,

    I'd say get the 9 cell, and for three reasons: it provides you with a bit of elevation for typing, extends the battery life to something useful, and allows for proper airflow under the computer.

    However, the price tag makes it a tough buy for many. I got it for 50% off when I purchased my computer. It's up to you whether its worth that money.

    9 cell is $30 more, would it still be worth it?

    In my opinion, yeah it's worth it. I actually bring my computer places and the extra battery life makes it much easier to do so.

    I decided to just get both. It's only $60 for both of them.

    That's what I did and then I sold the 6 cell.
