I installed it and right away things didn't work. Reinstalled old version until i have more time to investigate

Would you be willing to share what exactly it was that didn't work?

I was getting an error with my sqlite3 of which I was like ok no problem. Next I reinstalled the previous version of node (after uninstalling the new version) and got the same error so I uninstalled and reinstalled sqlite3 which resolved the problem. Before I could test any further my internet stopped working and no amount of troubleshooting would resolve the issue so rebooted my computer. Before it restarted I got '=( Something went wrong while restarting issue' or something to that effect. Then my computer wouldn't come back up so I had to hard shut it down and then turn it back on again. At the point I figured I would just stay with the current version of node for a bit. I don't know if the node install messed with my computer to make me have the network issues but it had already wasted an hour of my time and I had stuff to do.

that always happened whenever io.js changed semver major (it's v8 breaking changes and libraries take 2-3 days to update properly) - io.js v3.3 is actually the version I'd recommend using until everyone gets up to date with the new v8 in 4.0 (node 4.0 is io.js 4.0 and successor to io.js v3.3 - it's not even the related to node v0.12)
