    Is your older computer turned on and if it is what location does it show. New one could be sharing info with old one. Just a thought.

    My location is either taken from my phone's GPS or from a third party GPS database that associates my wifi, or several wifi's in a built up area, with the phone's GPS.

    Try other mapping software like Bing Maps or Apple. My location was wrong for a year after I moved house. You could try changing the name (SSID) of your wifi to break the association.
