If you jump between Windows and Mac you will love the fact your passwords are always available. 1Password is a great product (I own it) but it is only for Mac OSX. You get a 14 day trial of LastPass. Try it out. Remember the goal of a Password Manager is to allow you to use more secure passwords vs ones you can easily remember or have hacked. If your passwords are currently easy to remember you at more risk due to weak passwords then storing them online with LastPass.

Since your review I checked into 1 Password for my Macbook and found that it costs 39.99 to buy. The downfall is that it doesn't appear to store your passwords and info online or 3rd party like last pass. The upside is that it doesn't store your passwords and info online or third party. Just so you know I am not a computer or tech savvy fellow (which is why I like SMR)but the thought of letting someone who I can't see or meet in person let alone personally don't know have all of my, how did you say....digital keys to my life, just doesn't sit easy with me. So what is a man to do, I'm just not comfortable with the cloud so I guess I will get the 1pass for my MB and back up to the ole Time machine!
