I don't know that the older 700 series are upgradeable. I think they
are "permanently" installed. I couldn't find any upgrade paths for my
704g. I have F13 currently installed on mine. I'm using the 4G SSD and
a 4G SD card using LVM and a striped LV across both drives. I can
still fit it on one if I wanted to though, just not much room for user
files.

The best bet may be to use the LXDE spin[1]. It's even more light
weight than XFCE.
