Have you ever dealt with actual non-techies on this?
In a week we learn, via HN, of the Last FM top 50 passwords (usual suspects, no surprises), and that 50% click on any link sent them moving the needle at all is more important than getting it to great.
I've come across many intelligent, successful, professionals who still reuse passwords, who still use child's name + random number for important things. Is using a book or online service a terrible idea compared to using steve36 for his domain registrar? What you call terrible at least moves the needle away from zero.
