    Hi,

    Have a R61 14.1" widescreen.

    I have a 6 cell battery for now. I got about 2.5 hours of battery at best (on vista for now, will downgrade to xp very soon!).

    I was thinking of getting a new battery, so i could go to school w/o bringing the power cord!

    I am looking at the 6 cell (again), 7 cell or 9 cell.

    I hesitate between the 7 and 9.

    What are your take on it ?
    Time vs usage vs usability ?

    External charger is also on my mind (with two batteries if I got another battery :)

    Sebastien
