Your computer will save the password though :/ well, my Mac does, and so do my housemates PCs, so you dont need to remember the password. Plus, they're not 64 or 128 digits in length, that's the encryption method, if you had ever setup a wireless network using 64/128bit WEP you would know that. Also it wouldnt be hell to setup every computer in a school like that, because in a school they setup one machine with the software needed, and the operating system setup properly, then make a clone of the hard drive image and install it onto all the other computers, so instead of installing each piece of software one by one, per machine, they install the software once, and then just clone it onto all the other machines, makes life a hell of a lot easier, as they use group licensed software, it means they dont have to worry about putting seperate serial numbers into each machine either. Disabling SSID Broadcast is a good idea if you want to be a bit more secure, MAC address filtering is useful, I use it at home and it's simple to setup, but so is a WEP password, so it's 6 of one half a dozen of the other really. Joe, if you post your router model, or google it, you will probably be able to find a downloadable instruction manual which would help you setup the right security settings, if not, then the model number might make it easier for someone else to talk you through it.
