As I said, there has been significant discussion on this topic, and the status hasn't changed: of course it is just software, so it is possible, but it will take a significant amount of work, and this is nothing we plan on supporting in the platform any time soon. And as I've said before, I would very much question the utility of this for netbooks anyway -- I certainly know that in my experience on my netbook, the screen is small enough, that I basically want to always run the current app full-screen. I think one can extend the current Android window manager to work quite well on netbooks without turning it into a desktop style UI.
