I disagree. Computer software is also stored on physical materials.
However, large parts of DNA should be thought of as data not software - it is blueprints for creating specific amino acids which are then used for building proteins.
Also the cell is not quite like a CPU which runs only one set of instructions at once, but rather does parallel processin ...[text shortened]... software should more correctly be thought of as being throughout the cell, not just in the DNA.

it never happened.
