Surely the code written for Traf-O-Data, before Altair BASIC, counts as a
commercial product; I'm not sure what definition of "published" you're
using here.

Didn't he write code for DEC machines at his
school before that?
I'm sure he wrote code before Mits BASIC - everyone writes lots of stuff as
they learn - but as far as I have been able to determine - Mits BASIC was
his
first published commercial product.
