Most MacBooks have a GPS antenna, so they will return pretty accurate location. And having a consistent API is important too, not having to care if your code is running on mobile or desktop is pretty nice.

Are you sure they don't just use WiFi SSIDs to determine a location? I can't find any evidence to support macbooks having GPS.
