Dell 8200 case

It is the case that opens of a clam shell.
And no, lol I don't live in a dorm and space is not really a concern. I'm actually about to have a 2 bedroom apartment to myself in March-April. .I don't think sheet metal work would be required, but I haven't really torn the thing down yet to find out.
I wouldn't want a small case, actually, as I have several harddrives that I would like accommodated. If I removed the floppy, I think the 8200 case could accommodate 4 drives.
The powerswitch, I gotta be honest, I'm not really advanced enough in my schooling to know if its standard or not.. It looks like a midget IDE cable.
I'll start stripping this thing down and see if I can provide any info. But really the biggest thing is, I'm sentimental to the case. This computer was my sad, pathetic life for years lol.

More information:
I have the thing completely stripped. The I/O plate came out in one piece with the motherboard. Shouldnt need any kind of metal working to modify it. Still not too sure about the powerswitch. Looks like theres a cable that runs to a small card that contains the front mount USB and headphone jacks, and that has another cable that runs up the front of the case to the power switch.
I don't mine doing without the 2 front USBs. Worst case scenario, if i need more USB support I'll go with an external hub. The cable that runs from that card to the power switch is a 15 pin IDE ribbon cable. The p4 chip came out right with the heatsink fused to it. I can't even pry it off (not without using more force on it that i'm prepared to use). Shes old. LOL

LIEBERT(8) NUT Manual LIEBERT(8) NAME
liebert - Driver for Liebert contact-closure UPS equipment NOTE
This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the liebert driver. For information about the core driver, see nutupsdrv(8). SUPPORTED HARDWARE
This driver supports some Liebert UPS equipment with a contact-closure interface. This includes the UPStation GXT2 with their contact-closure cable. The smart mode ("Multilink") cable is not supported by this driver. EXTRA ARGUMENTS
This driver does not support any extra settings in the ups.conf(5). BUGS
This driver does not yet support shutdowns by raising DTR. Be aware that shutdowns are not possible with the stock contact-closure cable. You may have to build another cable with DTR connected through to the UPS for it to work. There is no way for this driver to detect the hardware or cable. It will start up successfully even if no UPS is present. This is a fundamental limitation of any contact-closure driver. SEE ALSO
