Beginning next month, the Round Rock, Texas, PC maker plans to sell hardware and to sign up subscribers for DirecTV's digital video recording (DVR) service, a Dell representative said. A DirecTV representative confirmed that the two companies are discussing a deal.

The system combines DirecTV's satellite TV with TiVo's digital video recorder (DVR), which can store and play back TV programs.

Dell sells a wide range of third-party products, including digital cameras, televisions and TiVo DVRs, through its software and peripherals division.

The PC maker aims to double its annual revenue over the next few years.
