Hardware vendors can ship Netbooks with Vista if they want to. But many don't. It's the other way around: Netbooks are the only way for a hardware vendor to ship Windows XP on a new computer (other than the more expensive Vista Business Downgrade route). XP Netbook licensing imposes restrictions: Single core, not more than 1.6Ghz, etc which is why Netbook hardware specs are stagnant. Netbooks have never been limited to Windows XP.
