There are two issues:
1. To date there is no version of AmigaBasic that is working properly
   on the A3000 (you know, 24 bit addressing). But this may change. 

WHEN some time this is ok, THEN no. 2 may come into business:
2. As far as I know there may be also marketing issues (NOT my job).

Fact is, the A3000 is already bundled with two
languages/applications, ARexx and AmigaVision; AmigaBasic
would be third. (Don't know about other models.)
