Be careful! Some of those computers have the wrong data for Spits.
I got a battery once, from a computer listing, that was a very, very tight fit.
The next time I brought the old one with me and made sure the new
one was smaller.  (I got it at Wal-Mart, which has perfectly good batteries 
real cheap.)
