In theory it would allow you to share the laptop's web connection but it's a more complex setup and many people never get it to work.

I've mentioned on the site before that I tried setting this up just for testing so I could help people troubleshoot. I had two laptops, each running WinXP. I used the same wireless adapter in both with the same drivers. I set up ICS in the same way on both. On one PC, it took me about 15 minutes before I had web access (for Internet, email and I was able to access files on the PC). With the other, I spent several days troubleshooting and never got it to work.
