Not Aussie, but I have both ArsTechnica and Phoronix in my RSS reader:

http://arstechnica.com/
http://www.phoronix.com/

Ars covers the occasional Linux bit, but is a good industry-wide news
site.  The authors are highly technical, so the news is generally of a
better quality than sites like ZDNet and others, who quite frankly make
me embarrassed to be in professional IT sometimes.  One of the article
writers has a background in micro electronic engineering, and their
articles on new CPU design are very in depth, but still easily readable
even for those without similar qualifications.

Phoronix is dedicated to Linux and Solaris, and has a host of reviews
and benchmarks of various Linux distros running on new hardware,
including things like WINE to native Windows comparisons, etc.
