Looks like this guy http://blog.greg-net.co.uk/post/21228054876/building-node-js... has already written a tutorial to cross compile nodejs for the Raspberry Pi

At Arch Linux ARM one of our developers has been maintaining Node.js packages for ARMv5+ for a while now, they should work on any distro if you don't want to go to the trouble of compiling yourself or don't want to use Arch.

They're just tarballs, unpack them and move the files if needed.

We also have full Raspberry Pi support as another of our developers has had a test board for quite a while, so if you're looking for something simple but powerful, it's a good choice :)

If you're talking about that terminal embedded in the page, it's fake.

funnily enough - it records the text in GA as a custom event http://www.google-analytics.com/__utm.gif?utmwv=5.2.8&ut....

It's not particularly well escaped, either - typing <s makes the cursor disappear, and if you paste in something like

    <script>alert('hi');</script>

it gets executed.

BeagleBone has node.js support, too:

Even better, it comes with Cloud9 IDE and node.js running by default, so can just power it up, point a browser to it, and get hacking. http://c9.io/

It's a nice touch.
