    Does anyone know yet if the 9-cell battery will stick out of the M1530 like it does on the M1330?

    I would assume so... I'm pretty sure most laptops are designed now a days to fit as powerful a battery as they can without jetting out of the case, and then offer a larger/stronger battery that does stick out, to people who are willing to sacrifice some size/weight.

    Plus, thats the case with the 1520, 1530, 1330, 1210, 1720, etc... so i dont see why it would change now.

    Alright, thanks, I'll probably just stick with the 6-cell then.

    After some research, I have found that it doesn't stick out the same as the 1330. It sticks out similar to the 1520's 9 cell...
