Moving my 150 from office to home, planning to put in on a granite tile (12" square) over slab floor. This is a 72x18" with an oak cabinet, full widthxdepth bottom. Anyone ever heard of such a thing cracking a tile floor? Thanks.

If the tiles are put down correctly with enough mortar underneath there should be no problem as long as the stand is full contact all the way around and not just on 4 legs.

Is your tile over concrete slab or backerboard, plywood and joists....if over concrete and and the stone is installed properly you should be fine but if over the later you will be hosed....it wil crack bad...

I dont think you'd have a problem with a full contact stand, especially since you said there's a concrete slab underneath.
I have seen tile crack, with stands with 4 legs, instead of full contact though.
