From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (27 SEP 03) [foldoc]:



  DTSS
       
           The first commercial {time-sharing} system,
          created by {Dartmouth College} and sold by {General Electric}
          around 1967.
       
          GE's Information Service Divsion (ISD) marketed DTSS which was
          running on a system called {GE-265} (a combination of the
          {front-end processor} the {Datanet-30} and the {GE-235}).
       
          DTSS was ported (and significantly improved by GE ISD around
          1965-1966 on a combination of DN-30 and {GE-635}).  This
          proprietary system, called Mk-II, later improved by GE and
          renamed Mk-III, is still working today (1997) as part of the
          GE service bureau that also includes {IBM} and {Unix}
          computers.
