The first half of Plato's Hippias Major exhibits the interfacing of the first teacher (Socrates) with the first version of a post‐colonial, multicultural information technology system (Hippias). In this interface the purposes, results and values of two contradictory types of operating system for educational servicing units are exhibited to, and can be discovered by, anyone who is not an information technologist.
