This is a reference to donald trump in general. May be this in particular?
Now on 2nd try I would say the first part is naturally the zip code for Sedona, Arizona. A place pretty familiar to Justin. But why that year?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justin_Frankel
"Justin Frankel was born in 1978 and grew up in Sedona, Arizona."
Hm, probably it is about 4 programmers(including Justin), who have founded Nullsoft in 1999. Why 1988? Maybe it is a reference to mp3 format? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MP3
"The Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) was established in 1988 by the initiative of Hiroshi Yasuda (Nippon Telegraph and Telephone) and Leonardo Chiariglione. Yasuda was leading an initiative in Japan, called the Digital Audio and Picture Architecture (DAPA), while Chiariglione was leading an initiative in Europe, called the Coding of Moving Images for Storage (COMIS). Both eventually met in May 1988 to work on a global standard."
Maybe. It seems the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) called for an audio standard in Dec. 1988. But the first three algorithms were approved 1991 and finalized 1992. (Wikipedia.) Anyways, a far tie to the Winamp later on.
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made."
