I assume the plan is to build for the netbooks, not on the netbooks? :-)

I've run Poky built images on a bunch of older netbooks I have lying 
around by Samsung, Acer and Asus.

I think you should be fine with pretty much any netbook you can get but 
I strongly recommend you avoid anything which requires non-open drivers 
- that way you have a better chance of the stock kernel just working.

Just last week I built an image for my Samsung NC10 and the stock kernel 
worked fine.

Cheers,
Joshua
