In the first manual page was written: "The new A3000 . . .a cheap alternative to the A2500 system".

Sound strange to me that a machine with in-built SCSI, newer design and higher performances, was sold as "cheap alternative".


I believe the later A2500s came with 68030 and SCSI cards so the performance wouldn't have been too different; up till then the A2500 was marketed as an extreme high-spec professional machine and they probably didn't want the A3000's appeal to be as selective.


Edit: that's high-spec, not mil-spec  ;-)
