The reason for Netbook-specific distributions is largely because for
many people, these are used in a different way. I.e. the usage-pattern
being different it is worthwhile to use a different GUI (I use plain
old Debian on my Netbook and it works fine, but it suffered from
occasional minor problems mostly due to the screen size (i.e. dialog
boxes where all the buttons are unreachable)), and many people
have a hard time distinguishing the GUI from the distribution.
