When you say "easy to open and close" are you talking about the ease of taking off the side panel or the ease of removing and swapping components?

I feel safe saying that any case with thumb screws holding on a side panel could be deemed "easy to open" but like DeafB4 said, if you're looking for easy component removal, look to something tool-less (ie removable HD Bays, quick release CD slots etc).

If you can be more specific about what you're really looking for, it'll help steer recommendations.
