According to the docs you should be able to install F14 in graphical
mode on this computer:
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/14/html/Release_Notes/sect-Release_Notes-Welcome_to_Fedora_14.html#sect-Release_Notes-Hardware_Overview
In anyway, if anaconda refuses to install X-server you're still able to
install it 'by hand' after system installation completes.
