Node is a step into the right direction, but the Node.js way is only the base for building up new or other technoligies.
Yes programmers want to experiment with new things, but when programmers grow up, they want to use things that work without inventing the wheel again.
Node grow up now and it is exciting to see what node will be.
It seems that iam too old with my 35 years ;-) because i see things like node as a tool, a tool to solve a problem. I use node, but i did not say "yesssss it is the best thing in the world, wohoooooo" ;-)
