+            productivity and profit through data integration. It connects, improves and
+            manages business processes in areas such as sales, finance, supply chain,
+            project management, production, services, CRM, etc...
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            The system is platform-independent, and can be installed on Windows, Mac OS X,
+            and various Linux and other Unix-based distributions. Its architecture enables
+            new functionality to be rapidly created, modifications to be made to a
+            production system and migration to a new version to be straightforward.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+            Depending on your needs, OpenERP is available through a web or application client.
