Well, we have verification it was an ex-EMC "consultant": See: thestreet.com Steve Duplessie and his consulting company get paid to go on the road and trumpet the greatness of EMC (EMC is listed on the "Enterprise Storage Group" website as a customer, BTW). It's interesting that he frames EMC's targeting 30% of revenue from software and 50% of revenue from hardware getting potentially reversed as a positive. The reason this is changing is that revenue is dropping, they are selling less hardware and trying to sell more add on software. It's actually a negative. This is all about spin and Steve Duplessie is paid to spin.
