I see that dell offers standard 6 cell batteries along with laptop, but there is also an option to add 9 cell battery, so is the 9 cell battery bigger? will it look bad? create more weight?
or is the difference very minimal?

See this Inspiron 1520 review: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=141862
It has pictures of the 1520 with the 9-cell battery. It sticks out ~2 centimeters out the back. The 6-cell does not stick out.
It's a bit more weight, but a lot more battery power. Personally I would go for the 9-cell and don't care about the little bit of stick out at back.
