    I've searched through Dell's site, but I don't see mention of the new 14's power cable. I'd like to purchase at least one spare to leave at home or the office. Does Dell just not sell these (yet)?

    No...if anything, I find them to be downright dainty, after experiencing ASUS G46 and MSI GT60 power bricks.... Now, THOSE things were humongous!

    True, I have the G46 from Asus and man the it's literally a power brick. The AW 14's power-brick looks like it's little baby

    Thanks a lot! I wish Dell made it clearer, but at least now I know.

    That's exactly the same as the one for last year's M14x R2, it's really quite small in person. For a 150watt power adapter it's downright puny. It's not much bigger than more 65watt laptop adapters.
