Locked means the thread was probably inappropriate or it broke a forum policy so the moderator made it unable to reply to.

If it was locked, that means that it wasn't entirely offensive so it was left as an example for other users to see what is deemed as inappropriate.

Well, inappropriate or just kind of pointless, like this thread. I think it will probably be locked fairly soon.

Why is it that Anandtech users are always so angry and disrespectful?

Ok, so he asked a question. What harm would it do for you people not to say anything or to politely answer his question? Do you come here to chat or to make fun of new members?

Shame on you!
