Well, my guess is this:  (only a guess)
i860's ain't expensive, so that ain't it.
you'd be hardpressed to find a similar board for a PC, if it had a processor that could do the graphics as quickly as an 860, and i didn't find many cheap boards that did decent SVHS output and fewer that could do PAL.  The I/O throughput on a NeXTDimension is usually better than on a PC or Mac.
and with a nice educational discount... sweet deal.
