    Hi everyone! Im new hwew and I just bought my new Acer Aspire 8.9" 160GB netbook.

    I have a few questions if you dont mind:

    1. My model of Acer is : AOA150-1982 would this be my model number? What "series" is it under to look for accessories?

    2. Where do most of you buy your extra battery, on Ebay or a vendor on here?

    3. Im assuming a 3-cell battery came with my netbook. So does the 6 and 9 cell battery stick way out further when installed?

    4. For aftermarket batteries, what do you recommend? 6 cell ? 9-cell etc.

    Thanks and sorry for the questions!!

    1. I could not find the 1982 in Acer's list. I did find a 1983. It comes with a 6 cell battery. The series is Netbooks.

    2. I have not explored any vendors for batteries. I am a new user myself. The Acer store sells them. http://store.acer.com

    3. A 6 cell battery comes with the model 1983; I do not know what came with yours. The 6 cell does stick out further than the 3 cell according to what I have read.

    4. A 6 cell gives longer computing time than the 3 cell. I will buy a 6 cell for mine as a second battery.

    Definitely OEM quality.
