I try to remember them all, but if I had to store my passwords, I would make a text file, and store it into an encrypted 7z compressed file (AES 256, maybe it's weak). Of course, you would need a master password.
- 7z doesn't need install, so you can put it on a USB stick with your pass file, if you want to carry it.
- 7z is cross platform
7z or anything with that kind of features and easyness.

Hello,

On the argument "IE is free as beer", no need to say "it's in the OS price" because anyway, they will have paid for it so you'll be answered "as I paid, I'd better take profit".
On that point, FF has an added value that anyone can understand: the thousands of add-ons. I use 6 or 7 like weather, mouse gesture, gmail bookmarks, download managers, signature manager... Something else: I don't understand why, but I know many people who have at the same time Google toolbar, MSN toolbar + yahoo + AOL + unknown toolbar which is very stupid. I think FF users are more prone to avoid that. The Community is and will ever be the biggest strenght of FOSS, whether you are part of it or simply "leecher".

Further: they are not coders so they don't know what free code is. Ok. Tell them that in their future company, they'll have some proprietary specific-database. If one day they wish to quit the supplier, they might lose their database. It's like an Iphone : you're AT&T and you can't change. But if they have the hum... "free" Iphone, they could go Cingular and else. Could say the same for AAC or DRM music.

At last, for the free as beer, they could save money on their OS, their Office Suite, their Antivir and Firewall (if they switch OS), their burning apps (no Nero or Easy CD Creator), and save the annual fee too.

hope it helped
