The microprocessor is the engine that 'computes' everything. It's mostly rated in mHz speed, - and that's like how fast your car engine is going. But another factor is design. Intel designs and manufactures it's idea of a microprocessor, while AMD does the same.
So, both manufacturers could have the same 3.0 mhz microprocessor, and the AMD internal design has faster results, becuase of it's internal design.
A few other concepts, besides raw mHz of the microprocessor is chipset, FSB, video, Harddisk, memory type / qty., and a few others.

If you really need a answer for this question then maybe you should get yourself the book Beginner Computers for Dummies. The microprocessor although small is the main component of your machine.

The processor is that brain of the computer. That is like asking why you need a power supply or memory.
