> you probably don't use that for things like excel

I'm not sure when I read it, but long ago I read some kind of AMA from a MS engineer working on Excel saying that his greatest achievement was working on the team that made the Excel's DAG solver trivially parallelizable. In the same thread, he mentioned that offloading to the GPU was being looked into. I guess it never came to fruition.
