I can't seem to get jquery to install on the latest release of npm/node.

The latest releases of Node.JS are v0.8.8 (stable) (release notes, download) and v0.9.0 (unstable).

What you're currently running is v0.9.1-pre -- a development build from the work being done towards a v0.9.1 release.

And, that's the problem:

Error: "pre" versions of node cannot be installed

The modules you're attempting to install don't support running on a development build. So, you'll have to decide on a release version to try them with.

You may also want to make note of the versioning scheme that Node.JS uses.
