    It could be a faulty display panel or a faulty data cable. It could also be as simple as a loose data cable which just needs some taping to ensure it doesn't shift out of the socket. You can replace these things easily enough generally speaking, if your comfortable opening up and working with computers/laptops.
    You can get replacement parts on ebay.
    For a netbook however it may not be worth putting too much time/money into it. I'd definitely check that the data cable is not loose, or being caught by the hinges of the netbook though.
