I have always had the impression that Vortexbox was some DIY thing for
Linux users. But never really investigated it. A quick search on google
doesn't make me things very clear.

Some places it just sounds like another Linux distribution for DIY
people. But then there's also:

http://www.vortexbox.co.uk/

which might be what you are talking about? In case so,...

1) Does this "thing" requires you to know Linux, or does it have a
simple setup and configuration interface, and "app-system" ?
4) Easy install of frequently updated LMS78 builds (I see no Vortexbox
builds builds on http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.8) ?
2) Will it support (easy install of) LAME, so LMS can do transcoding ?
3) Supports Triode's Spotify plugin ?

Luckily so far my NAS is back, and working fine again. But would be nice
to have a backup plan :-)
