Too bad it was a complete lie. I used Macs extensively from '87 through the '90s. My wife had one she bought in '95 or so, so we had direct comparisons between our PCs and her Macs. 95 wasn't the greatest OS ever written, but it did real work much better than any Mac OS I ever used prior to OSX. Try multi-tasking. Heck, just try running multiple programs on a mid-90s era Performa and see what happens. It took no effort at all for me to crash my wife's machine, which became a problem when one of mine was down and I needed online.
The Mac may or may not be a great platform, but mac lunatics have seriously hurt their own cause by making idiotic statements like the one I referenced.
The Win 95 = Mac 88 is about the user interface. I've already well-trashed pre-OS X cooperative multitasking and lack of memory protection, which was the reason for the stability problems.
