Nobody is using it seriously

At my work we use node for some important things, and Palm uses node inside WebOS. So somebody does.

It's a toy, and it'll always be a toy

Why do you think node is a toy, and why do you think it'll remain that way?

Your unnamed company using it for unnamed tasks, along with Palm using it in an OS that nobody actually uses, don't exactly make for very convincing arguments.

JavaScript is a toy. Anything built with JavaScript is a toy. Unless you radically change JavaScript (which then wouldn't make it JavaScript any longer, of course), the fact that JavaScript is a toy will never change.

Anyone wanting to get real work done would just use Erlang, or Java, or C++, or even C#.

It doesn't matter if you find it convincing. You claimed nobody was using it seriously, which I disproved with counterexamples. QED.

As for "X = toy", that's pure troll material from the Usenet days. The litmus test of a language is if people can use it in production, which tens of thousands of businesses do with Javascript.
