Pasted below the viz is the xml to add to your tableau preferences file to get the "excel color palette". Why you ask? No particular reason. I have also garishly formatted this viz to make the excel users more comfortable. Enjoy!
<color-palette name="excel" type="regular">
<color>#000000</color>
<color>#FFFFFF</color>
<color>#FF0000</color>
<color>#00FF00</color>
<color>#0000FF</color>
<color>#FFFF00</color>
<color>#FF00FF</color>
<color>#00FFFF</color>
<color>#800000</color>
<color>#008000</color>
<color>#000080</color>
<color>#808000</color>
<color>#800080</color>
<color>#008080</color>
<color>#C0C0C0</color>
<color>#808080</color>
<color>#9999FF</color>
<color>#993366</color>
<color>#FFFFCC</color>
<color>#CCFFFF</color>
</color-palette>
