Dallas-based Dell, Inc. stated Friday that it will buy the UK-based IT consulting firm The Networked Storage Co.  Network Storaged was created in 2002 and has 26 employees.  While a spokesperson for Dell would not discuss the deal with the IT consulting firm or the company’s revenues, the company advises many of Europe’s top financial institutions and customers that need help with infrastructure maintenance and management.  

At the same time as it decided to buy the IT consulting firm, Dell decided to work with retailer Tesco in order to sell XPS and Inspiron notebook and desktop systems in 500 stores based in the UK, Ireland, Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia.  

Dell has joined forces with many IT consulting firms and also retail stores in recent months as it breaks away from its direct-to-business and direct-to-consumers via phone and the Internet.  Dell’s agreements currently include selling computers in more than 10,000 stores throughout the world.
