My cabinet is on non-locking casters.
It's sitting on carpet and I've not had any issues with it moving around.

Yes, mine's on non-locking castors as well.  You'll find the cab will be heavy enough to sit in the carpet without moving.  No need for locking wheels.

My cabinet is on non-locking casters--it's on a concrete floor.  It only moves when retards come over and go crazy playing a game.

Mine definitely has castors on it.   The front casters are non-lockable 3" swivel (rotate 360) and the rear casters are lockable 3" fixed (do not rotate).     Having the front ones rotate and the back ones fixed help when moving the thing around....you basically can take corners/turn well.  IF the back castors swivel as well as the front, then you cabinet would be pretty hard to keep going in a straight line.

I could not imagine moving my cabinet without them since it is real heavy.  I would scratch the hell out of my tile if I pushed my cabinet around without the castors and I would not prefer to tilt my cabinet backwards since the TV and computer would move around (not to mention putting stress on various parts of the cabinet frame which were not meant to hold the stress).
