When I install ASP.NET MVC, am I installing a different run-time, compiler, etc? Or, is it just GACing some managed assemblies for the framework?

A:
MVC uses the same runtime and same compiler. It will add new project templates, page and controller templates to Visual Studio template folders. Also assemblies are added to the GAC.

A:
It is installing System.Web.Abstractions.dll, System.Web.Routing.dll and System.Web.Mvc.dll assemblies into the GAC and depending on the type of install it could also install a VS project template.
