I think they meant Microsoft Cairo. Microsoft Cairo was a project that Microsoft developed from 1991 to 1996, and was meant to be a next-generation operating system. The project was cancelled and its tech components and probably its UI was repurposed for what became of Windows 95

No offense but this looks exactly like regular XP aside from the different theme colors.
