Minimal Perl #1 in Amazon programming titles

Over at the ACM portal, C++, Java, and C have held the top three course spots for years. (I continue to be surprised that C++ holds steady at #1.) What do you think this says, if anything, about what ACM members consider to be important languages, versus what is popular on Amazon?
