You have Dropbox and it's no-config required. What's wrong with that? Is it that you have to configure it for it to do what you want, and you don't want to take the time to do so?

You don't want to set up a VPS, even though I mentioned nothing about one. I said to buy an appliance, same as a Time Capsule or whatever that Apple thing used to be called.

You think rsync+SSH+snapshot is complicated, but you don't know that Time Machine is exactly that, just hidden from you so if anything goes wrong it's a black box that you can't recover from.

You think rsync is too much scripting - what are you trying to do that requires scripting beyond `rsync -aP src dest`?
