I have an Inspiron now, been a great machine, no issues at all since I got it 8,9 years ago..Am looking at the Optiplexes but it's irritating that everything is add-ons..ie monitor/optical drives/etc

This is another one of those cases where you may need it once in a blue moon, so don't buy based on having one. On the rare occasion I need one, I plug in a USB external drive.
Yeah they don’t seem to package anything anymore. I’m guess that’s how they push the all-in-ones.
Yeah I always just didn’t like the inspirons because there was always a shortage on memory expansion and drive bays. These days I don’t do any more video editing so it probably wouldn’t be as much of an issue, nor would it for you.

That would require effort on my part..
I just want to sit down and do what I want to do. I have 4 external hard drives but not a cd/dve/opt external drive

I've mentioned it before, good place to say it again:
The single most incredibly impressive gain in performance on my laptop was replacing the SATA drive with an NVMe chip. It completely eliminates the bottleneck created by the SATA controller. Performance is just outstanding for a cheap ($150-200) laptop as compared to the original SATA HDD.
