I got it installed very easily using an external CD-drive via usb. 
Overall my fear that vortexbox would be complicated was put to shame. My
only difficulties was

1) That the ethernet connection apparently does not work if you use a
broken ethernet cable (doh!)
2) The auto-ripper by default rips to FLAC, while I would prefer 320kbps
MP3. Its not very well documented how to achieve this, however, it was
actually quite easy once you find the ripper config file
(/etc/ripit/config).

So far I am super happy about the set up. Vortexbox is very cool and
easy to use. I love the simple web-interface and the auto-ripper. The
downside is that the Aspire Revo is slightly more noisy than I had
hoped. I guess I will have to find a closet somewhere to stick it in :).
