Wow…and I thought GameCrush was stupid. Starting this June, Apple fanboys and fangirls will have a dating service to call their own: Cupidtino.com. Here’s the company’s mission statement:
Cupidtino is a beautiful new dating site created for fans of Apple products by fans of Apple products! Why? Diehard Mac & Apple fans often have a lot in common — personalities, creative professions, a similar sense of style and aesthetics, taste, and of course a love for technology. We believe these are enough reasons for two people to meet and fall in love, and so we created the first Mac-inspired dating site to help you find other Machearts around you.
Cupidtino will launch in June 2010 exclusively on Apple platforms — Safari, iPhone and iPad apps. It’s time to share the love.
I swear, I’m not making this up. Someone actually thinks that Apple fans need their own dating service. I might try it out, but not on the company’s exclusive platform. I would visit the site on a Windows 7 PC running Chrome or a Google Android phone. Just kidding.
What do you think of the service? Will it find a sizable audience? Or is it too niche? How do you think it compares to GameCrush? On one hand, it’s not guys paying to play games with girls. On the other hand…it just sounds like a remarkably stupid idea. Leave a comment and take this poll please!

It's actually a pretty good idea. From my personal experience apple has some of the most die hard customers. So it would only be natural for these customers to seek out other die hard Apple enthusiasts. I know for a fact this site would be a huge hit in the bay area, the apple mecca of the world.
Nobody better steal my idea for a pezlovers.com dating site!

I think this will work. As far as being too niche…what does that matter when you can charge each of those members an arm and a leg each.
Cupidtino can probably make tons of money off of just a few hundred die hards. We already know that apple fans are willing to pay more than the products value for apple products in the first place, why not here as well? *joke*
Great Idea it is!!!
My friends and I get into heated arguments about Apple and Microsoft and Apple fans are effing die hard. So this will be like another excuse to one up someone who loves Apple that has a gf/bf that is into Microsoft.
