Who ever mentioned farms? I just mentioned letting a server handle the processing. I dont see it as all that particularly hard on a network with thousands of other PC's sitting arond doing nothing 95% of the cycle-time. With Intel and AMD shipping ridiculously powerful GFX chips on their CPU's now, pretty much every device would make a nice small render farm. Obviosuly prioritisiation and security would need to be managed, along with barring some machines from even processing, but that's all semantics and comes down to the design.
Regardless, it's only a spreadsheet, but when the OpenCL stuff is implemented, why not try? Might even start making Libreoffice network based as well (reducing the need for updating your old hardware even more).
