    Because they seem to think that the .tld has something to do with SEO. It does not however. .EDU on its face holds no more inherent value than any other extension.

    Yuppp...
    they say it can boost PR more. And usually .edu have high PR.
    But in the fact, i don't know whether .edu with PR 1 is more valuable than .com PR1.

    Cuz they think .edu or .org have more weight value than .com but i think have checked and see that most of them are just nofollow which has no any value to us at all.

    Yes most of them use nofollow tag, but I think persons don't check that.

    Edu links have some value but not the burried links personally I would not bother with acquire links this way as google prefers natural links from your content.

    yes, you means content relevant link is strong and .edu or .gov links not good to any other content site.

    It means content links not strong than .edu or .gov links. you suggest exchange education links with any website.
