The Tube podule to use an A500 as a co-pro to a Beeb, which was used in 
development before the A500 did all it's own I/O, definitely still 
exists -- there's one a few feet from me.  I've never heard of hardware 
that worked the other way round (Tube host), though, and I don't believe 
RISC OS (even early builds) supported that -- but of course early 
versions of Arthur had a Tube client, to go with the podule.
