Unless it is possible to root the latest ota w/o adb or sync. But everything I have seen so far says not.

Hope the new machine gets it for you, didnt run Simple root so I'm at a loss.
You used Charge Only or HTC Sync with USB Debugging enabled and Simple root still wont go?
Did you search their thread?
I searched "wont work" and got this among other hits:

MAKE SURE THAT THE DOS WINDOW HAS THE FOCUS 100% OF THE TIME.
I had to run through the steps twice because somewhere in between step 2 and 3 I clicked away from the dos screen which caused it to lose focus and it SEEMs to be fine, but it is not. Also, in step 3 make sure that you are seeing the flash animation and that its fully loaded, this is very important. I didnt see it the first time and that caused problems.
So, Run through all the steps and DO NOT CLICK ANYWHERE ELSE while the screen is working. Use the video on the link on the first page to reference how much time each step should take. If you follow the steps EXACTLY, I see no reason it should not work.
My evo is 3 days old, with the latest OTAs and all the crap sprint threw at it, I was still able to use simpleroot and put damage control on it with ease
good luck
