basically, charge it all the way (this works for any laptop btw[ sorry alxz, BY THE WAY]) then use it till it dies, then charge it all the way WHILE NOT USING IT. Then use it all the way till it dies. then charge it all the way and then plug it in and take the battery out and only use the battery when ur going somewhere. i get about 8 hours our of my 6 cell 
for the record, im NEVER off of AIM lol
umm i didnt read the whole post  im NOT a girl lol

dell provides a .bat that when you open makes the hard drive spin faster so the battery drains quicker
