I should also add that I can't upgrade node because 0.8.x freezes randomly on XP.
And I can't upgrade XP.
And, yes, I am sad about this. :)
That sounds lame :/ haven't tested Node on Windows at all, to be honest. I'll poke around and see if I can find a happy middle ground. There is currently no technical reason why Burnout should require Node > 0.6.x.
Do keep in mind that odd-numbered Node versions are unstable though, so I wouldn't recommend 0.7 for any production use cases.
My main use case at the moment is browser automation for dev productivity tools, so stability isn't a huge concern.
If we decide to use this for acceptance testing as well, the platform will support more recent versions of node.
In any case, I appreciate you taking a look at this!
