Please read an introduction to Amiga 3000s in this entry.

The Amiga 3000T was released in 1992, a year after the desktop 3000 release. It Correcting the space problems of the desktops in a big way. This oversized tower includes three 5.25" bays, and two 3.5" bays. There are also five Zorro slots for additional expansion cards, and four bridgeboard PC slots.

The Amiga 3000T-040 is identical to its brother except that, while it still has the onboard 68030 processor, its CPU expansion slot comes stock with an A3640 cpu card with a 68040/25 processor, plugged into it.

Some subtle clues (such as the labeling of the mouse/joystick ports as "mouse 1" and "mouse 2", make me believe that this computer was probably intended for business or industrial use.
