Is there a way (or usefulness thereof) of setting the Maps "Current location" on a Mac Pro that has no Wi-Fi? Naturally, since it isn't a portable computer, the "Current location" should be my usual address, where the computer is located. So, is there a way for Maps, in such an environment, to be aware of its location?
Got a tip for us?

My mini finds it's location and wifi is off!!
I do have my contact card associated with my user tho?!?!
Which contact card? Naturally, my name and address also appear in my Contacts app, but I must be missing something. Should I somehow associate the Mac Pro's location with my address? Shouldn't the computer "know" that by default?
You've a contact card. Go into your user account in settings and there's an option to associate this. It's the only difference I can see.
Yes, the computer already knows who I am and where I live. Still no "Current location" in Maps. Oh, well; it isn't that important.
