No, but running a 10 year old operating system that has no support from
anyone is foolish, yes.  Even the oldest Linux distribution with vendor
support is only 6 years old (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1) and it's only
supported through May of next year (2009).  It won't be making it to the 10
year mark with support.
Run something from this century, m'kay? ;-)
