It seems that I'm in the market for a new laptop battery.  Do you have a favorite website for batteries, or perhaps others reading this post might have a good source.  Thanks.

The good and the bad is you should source your battery from the OEM (factory) for best results (not always best price)  Your dealer may have better batteries not yet in the after market.
We have tried many and always go back to OEM
Matching the battery and charger is important on lap tops.
Cool

There used to be a website called laptopbattery.com, I just tried it and it is now ebatts.com.  Might be worth a try. 

You are right that they are priced way above what they should be.
