Are HDMI cables a requirement for watching commercial Blu-Ray movies? If I put a Blu-Ray drive in my computer, will I be able to watch Blu-Ray movies on a monitor that is hooked up via some non-HDMI cable? (DVI, VGA, whatever) [more inside]

Is there any free or cheap service where I can store all my passwords, uh, online? Is this a reasonable question or am I being foolish? I have all my passwords in a Word document but don't like carrying them on my usb as a)I lose it. Is there such a site for security that I can encrypt this tiny but precious document?
