Can this be installed with Node side-by-side or does it take over the `node` name?

It takes over the `node` name via symlinks. But you can have a working REPL side by side by overwriting with the prior node one again. Node isn't uninstalled.

It gets symlinked to node and npm

nvm is being updated to support installing both project-specific node and io.js libraries.
