    # using Homebrew

    # Note: `brew install npm` has problems, as of 2010-12-30.

    PREFIX=$(brew --prefix)

    # take ownership
    # this will also let homebrew work without using sudo
    # please don't do this if you don't know what it does!
    sudo mkdir -p $PREFIX/{share/man,bin,lib/node,include/node}
    sudo chown -R $USER $PREFIX/{share/man,bin,lib/node,lib/node_modules,include/node}

    brew install node

    # now install npm
    # prefix will default to $(brew --prefix)
