IIRC, there were at least two different rom sets (different pinouts) for the desktop 3000.  Early 3000s had a rom-tower (another daughterboard) with, I think, 4 rom sockets.  Later MBs, perhaps the most common version, used a different style of rom.  I have no idea how the 3000 tower fit into this evolution.  

It's worth making sure.  Sorry, Matt.

The ROMs are the same, it's just the tower that you wouldn't need in the 3000T.

You could take a set of 1.4 softkick ROMs (often came on ROM-tower 3000s) and throw them into a 3000T if you wanted to.
