OpenCL: What to do when there is no compatible GPU?

I'm learning OpenCL and I have a compatible x86 CPU, but my GPU doesn't support OpenCL at all. So when I call the clGetDevices API, it returns nothing.

As I'm just learning this framework and I'm not looking for optimization or higher performance, is it necessary to get a new system ? (While OpenCL programs are running on my platform)

Thanks in advance :)
