I'm as pro-free-market as anyone, and I didn't detect anything political in Mr. Harris's comment about free markets. I read it more as a slam on EMC's bad business decision to raise prices when real storage costs (remote and local) are declining.
As for your "you don't use it, so your opinion is useless" comment, that's ridiculous. If you have a reasonable understanding of a product, service, business decision, company, etc., etc., then your opinion is valid. As long as someone is arguing from a basis of facts (as Harris is), I'll listen to/read what they have to say.
You don't have to agree with him, but your disagreement doesn't invalidate his opinion.
