I've been using this battery with my dell Inspiron 1150 for about two weeks and love it. Make sure you condition the battery a few times, though!! I've heard that if you don't it won't work right.
Conditioning consists of:
Burning down any charge it comes with.
Charging to full.
Burning down all the way.
Charging to full again.
And then you're done!
Overall it works great. It protrudes out a bit, but since the laptop is so small anyway, it doesn't keep me from fitting it in my girlfriend's purse.
