Microsoft is also convinced that its works are a net benefit for humanity, so I would take that with a grain of salt.
I think it would be pretty hard to argue against that point of view, at least thus far. If DOS/Windows hadn't become the dominant OS someone would have, and a whole generation of engineers cut their teeth on their parents' windows PCs.
