It is an interesting comparison for sure, but things are different for two reasons:
1) Software and related services will grow immensely over the next decade because of the "cloud". Some of the growth will be same old, same old application logic software, but most of it will be data analysis software.
2) The language of choice for data analysis software is and will be R due to the biggest software companies (both #1 and #2, among many others) standing firmly behind it along with universities incorporating it in its curriculum, ditching SPSS and SAS.
