That notebook will run rather well.

I don't know if it getting better. I heard that Dell re-buy their battery.

I've use Dell, and I think it is AN OKAY.

But I prefer Toshiba because they are though.

No. Do not buy a Dell. Instead, you should get a Toshiba Satellite M65-S9092. I have one, and I love it.
