It's just a funny title for someone bitching about a particular model of Power Mac.
The mid-90s was a terrible time for Apple machines. The first few generations of PowerPC machines were awful, especially with the "OS" (if you can call classic MacOS one, with its lack of memory protection, crappy memory allocation in general, cooperative multitasking, etc.) being a mix of native PowerPC and emulated 68k code. I remember having to help administrate an office full of System 7 running machines that would crash (and by crash I mean whole system freeze up) if you tried to run FileMaker and Netscape at the same time.
And they were expensive machines. And their internals really not that great.
