Password storage?

(I seem to remember having a go-around with this a while ago, but I
forget quickly, and maybe something has changed in the meantime)
For reasons that aren't altogether obvious to me yet, I'm storing my
passwords in a few different places:
Linux laptop
Windows 8 laptop (don't judge me, but it does dual boot)
Android phone and tablet
Until recently, I was using SplashID which has functionality for keeping
passwords in sync between Windows and Android clients, but it has a few
nasty downsides for me. Namely the lack of a Linux client and the
Android client crashes and makes me put my master password in again.
I see all the cool kids are using KeePass these days, and I want to make
sure that my passwords are stored:
a) securely (FSVO 'securely')
b) available to the above devices, either via manual sync over a network
or a shared file location that gets synced
I'm also storing different sets of passwords for different groups I'm
working with. Some personal, some $EMPLOYER, some for some side
consulting I'm doing, and I'd like to keep the three as separate logical
groups so I can purge everything from one group should I finish up with
one group or another.
What do you use for password storage? And I hope it's not a spreadsheet.
