Why?  Well, if your computer is equipped with a Wi-Fi card (or
internal) and not a GPS, then you can still deterimine your location.
If you are indoors, where GPS doesn't work, Wi-Fi positioning would
still work.  If you have a GPS, but don't want to wait 2 minutes for
it to aquire a satellite signal, then Wi-Fi positioning can determine
locations in just a couple of seconds.
