I have over 500 passwords and it is impossible to remember them specially when you have random passwords for everything mixed with upper lower case, special characters, numeric. We use Roboform and for couple of years it works fine for us.≡ RVH Cloud - Every day hosting solutions since 2003≡

This is asking for trouble down the road =\ Password entropy isn't all that relevant, the real danger is reusing the same passwords. Let's take a fairly notorious example, Facebook. We all know they're less than honest when it comes to user privacy, etc.
If someone manages to get your FB password, they now have your name and email. From logging into your email account, they can now sift through and possibly find bank statements/PayPal/etc. Now they're in your bank account, viewing your SSN, and you've just invited a world of headache that could take years to clean up.
Never, _EVER_ reuse passwords, especially on social media or free-service sites.

I use the windows binary, and compiled linux binary available from http://www.sqlite.org/download.html . There's no real added security to using sqlite, I just do a _lot_ of my regular work in commandline SQL, so I find sqlite easier to find information in than a regular text file

Just the one that unlocks my KeyPass database.
Within the database I have around 50-60 for just about everything; banking, servers, websites, etc. All generated by KeyPass using 18 chars, impossible to remember really, example password just generated: %L7QnWri"ey%wWWvE&
I keep a backup copy of the database on a USB stick in the safe we have at the office and another copy in another safe at another property.

I keep around 10 in my head. For the rest I use KeePass then backup once a week to one of my servers after using TrueCrypt, under an encrypted directory so I have access to it when need be. I also keep a copy of it on my phone with mobile KeePass, so I can open at any time and view any pass I need We're in the new age guys, no SD card needed ha ha

I have about 4 in my head. But I write down important passwords in my iPhone which is password protected and I can remotely wipe it if it ever gets lost/stolen.

Using the mobile isn't a bad idea tbh for passwords alone but, where's the phone storing it too?
Good thing about a microSD card with USB is it's quick, easy & simple - no trouble - which chances are I'll be at a pc needing to use it in the first place it has my email client, bookmarks ... etc┣▇▇▇═─√v^√v^√♥

most my passwords are 16-20 characters and I know tons and tons.. I can think of 50 or so off the top of my head.. many people tell me I have a photographic memory.
I do have a USB drive with all my passwords but most the time I don't need to pull it out and use it anymoreCurrently hosting with Big Brain Global Networks

Good question - from what I understand, 2.x (professional) was a complete rewrite of 1.x (classic) utilising .NET to improve the program significantly.
This page explains it quite well

I remember two passwords the one to get into my Ironkey and the other to open my Keepass which is stored on it.
Everything else is just way to complicated to remember at this point.█ Tony B. - Chief Executive Officer

Probably around 10 personal passwords, but none of my business passwords as those are all impossible to remember.

Geez,
I have three different alpha passwords (6, 7 and 7 letters in length) for various low security purposes.
I expand one of those passwords to 10 alpha/numeric for more important things.
I expand that password even more for even more important things.
Then I have unique passwords for things like PayPal (alpha/numeric/symbol).
And for my servers I have random generated passwords for maximum security.
How many in total? Too many.
