Generic battery?

I was looking at getting a second battery for my Nikon D60. Do the generic batteries charge and last as well as OEM? Any recommendations?

Personally considering the price difference between oem vs generic expanded over the average life of a battery, I always get oem.

I've had no luck at all with non-OEM batteries for Nikon.

I bought an Optex brand battery for my Canon and it works great!
