Hi Chris.

Parallel computing is now inevitable in the near future for number-crunching
apps. Parallela seems to be a promising solution. AFAIK, there are already some
other solutions involving specialized hardware (among them, the GPU-based CUDA).
What about those existing solutions available today?
