    I bought my HP Nc8230 a while back (on halloween) and I noticed just recently that one of the tabs that holds the battery in place is broken. :mad:

    Since my camera is out of commision I will post a picture I made in MS Paint to show what I mean

    Knowing my MS Paint Skills, most of you wont be able to understand what I am trying to show in that picture. :confused:

    My question is :

    Can I buy a new battery tab thing or should I just leave it untill I get a new laptop (in August or something like that) ?
