Don't wait for Black Friday — I’ve found 6 coffee machines with steep discounts worth shouting about

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support As an experienced deals hunter, I was fully under the impression that, following the recent Amazon Prime Big Deal Days event, we wouldn’t be seeing any particularly noteworthy discounts on coffee machines until Black Friday . Having recently checked Amazon’s listing, however, it seems I’m very much in the wrong. I like to think that doesn’t happen often, of course, and on this occasion I’m more than happy to be told otherwise. Yes, I’ve found some superb discounts on some of my favourite espresso machines that either match their Prime Day price, or actually beat it. The Nespresso Vertuo Creatista at AU$697 is a couple of dollars cheaper, while the Sunbeam Origins Sense at AU$475.15 is over AU$80 less than what I saw during Amazon’s recent sale. It’s also pleasing to see the Philips LatteGo 4400 maintaining its discounted AU$799 price tag . It’s not the best...

Dell's 'Top Tech Event' features price cuts of up to $500 on our favorite laptops — here are 5 options from just $499

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support The official Dell Store is hosting a 'Top Tech Event' this week, which can only mean price cuts on the brand's excellent line-up of Windows laptops. In fact, discounts of up to $500 are available right now, should you be on the lookout for a new machine. I've been busy scanning through the retailer's store pages today, and I've spotted five machines that I think are particularly good value. While there are a lot of laptops on sale today, these are the ones that I'd buy with my own cash personally. First up is the Dell 15 Laptop for $499 (was $699) - an obvious choice if you need something for just the basics. The Core 3 chipset and 8GB of RAM will be good for browser-based tasks, and the 512GB SSD has a decent amount of space, too. While not a world-beater by any stretch, I could see this one being a great everyday option if you d...

Dynasty Warriors 3: Complete Edition Remastered review: Welcome (back) to China

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Revisiting one of Omega Force’s most beloved works via Dynasty Warriors 3: Complete Edition Remastered has been interesting. I got into the series quite late, so I’ve never had the same reverence for the earlier games that many other fans do. I’m happy to say that has changed with this remastered version. Review info Platform reviewed: PC Available on: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, PC Release date: October 1, 2026 This is a very different game compared to modern entries like Dynasty Warriors Origins or Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment . Objectives are straightforward, battles (for the most part) tend not to last as long, and your KO count per battle is much lower than the thousands you rack up in newer installments. Satisfaction lies elsewhere in Dynasty Warriors 3: Complete Edition Remastered. It trades bombastic theatrics and ‘rule of coo...
