Every computer connected to a network stores its own IP address, this includes small gadgets with network capabilities like some cell phones or the iPod touch .

A DNS - Domain Name Server - works as a sort of phone directory for computers and stores lots of IP addresses. But a DNS is not a kind of computer, it is just a program that in principle could run anywhere.
