Look for tabs then.

Do you still need to keep the case in good condition? If not, smashee-smashee ;)

If you fin the tabs (which you did) and pull just right, they open fairly easily. Doubt you'll find room for a cdrom if one isnt in there already though.

I have that exact case, yes it is a bitch to open, and you won't fit a cd rom unless you get a compaq deskpro kind... it's a little bit narrower than normal ones, and normal ones won't fit, trust me.

I got a sound card in mine, it has a 1 gig hdd, it will be the local NET web server when I move, and not too much else. I installed windows by adding a cd rom outside the case for the install, and then taking it out afterwards...

It works good for webserving my LAN, well, after I put the extra ram in it, but I got it for $85 so no complaints... :)
