Honest question regarding the password managers: what would you do if you had to log into one of your accounts from a machine not owned by you?

Say, you are traveling. You know there's a map, or something like that in your secondary email box. Only internet connection - the hotel PC. Would you risk accessing the master keychain from there just to look up that password?

I simply can not phantom not keeping all my passwords in the only 24/7 available storage - my brain. Also, don't I find myself logging into that many services on daily basis, as I often use Google/Facebook/LDAP as the access manager.




The KyPass iOS app (over Dropbox) works nicely.
