MVC is a generic concept. Microsoft, as usual, has provided tooling and templates around MVC to make it easier for the .Net developer. MVC 3 is simply the third version of that tooling and the one you should use.

>As I look for a good (newbie) article on MVC implementation (Googling all over the place) I see references to MVC, MVC 2, and MVC 3. I thought that MVC is just a concept (like OOP) and not a framework. Was I mistaken and MVC is a framework developed by Microsoft that undergone some version changes? TIA for clarifying.
