Theorize: How long was Kevin Flynn on the grid?

[Luuke]

So as Kevin Flynn said, hours on the grid were like minutes in the real world. So if in the real world he was gone for 20 years, Kevin's "grid time" must have been at least 200 years while only aging 20. Damn. 200 years is a long time to hang around. No wonder he had to develop a "zen" thing. However, you'd think with that much time Kevin would have thought of something to get out of the grid.

I honestly cannot tell you how many times this question has been brought up. But, it's been theorized that its been at least "1,000 years", at most "2,000 years" on the grid (I'm just going from what I remember reading).

I think that was mentioned in the current issue of Cinefex too, the concept that he was supposed to be in there for one to two thousand years.

...and in all that time he never found it necessary to decorate his place. :lol Perhaps the modern edition was the latest fad - I would have liked to see it, say, 300 years ago when he decided to do a disco motif. :lol
