Answer 1

There is no difference regarding dependencies on 3rd party anything. ASPX is fine, but Razor is better, mostly because it stays out of your way.

You should read Scott Guthrie's blog post Introducing "Razor".

You basically replace the opening and closing tags <% and %> with an @ symbol, so far fewer keystrokes to do the same thing, i.e.

<%: Model.UserName %>

becomes

@Model.UserName

and

<% foreach (string name in nameList) { .. } %>

becomes

@foreach (string name in nameList) { .. }

There's a little more to it than that, but not much.
