that was a copy and paste error ;-)
it should say:
%output=pdf
\showframe

this line should be on the left edge of the text area. And it should not
appear with the above line commented.

in the new context versions there is a file called tufte.tex:
pg@levana:/opt/context$ find . -name tufte.tex
./2001.07.02/texmf/tex/context/sample/tufte.tex
./2001.07.11/texmf/tex/context/sample/tufte.tex
and also these files:
douglas.tex knuth.tex materie.tex reich.tex tufte.tex zapf.tex
