Because the keys are hand-made and not automatically processed the day of the registration.

Well, he certainly has processed a good amount of registered keys prior to any order he may get. What's the problem?

I made the key when I got your order, I didn't pre-made it, it has a past date because I made it on my old PC (my good old P100), I don't know how many year old it is but it's quite old, its internal clock battery is somehow dead, it still works but time advances slower than real time, it losts one day every week or somethings like that, I was used to update the date manualy from time to time but after a while I got tired of it and I stopped updating it, that's why it has a past date. Voila, you know all the story now. Smile

I see...now I konw why the key is made one month earlier than my registration date.
Another question,my key that you sent to me is 'Pce.key' ,but my freind said his key is 'pce.key',why there has a different of 'P' and 'p',will this affect the key's function?
P.S I posted a topic about problem of zipped roms in bugs report page,can you see that.

All the keys I make have upper case names : 'PCE.KEY', but depending of the program you use to unzip it, letter case can change I guess, but this is ok, this doesn't affect the key function, it will works fine even if letter case is different, no problem.

I see the 'Pce.key' without unzip it,I just open the file with winzip,and there has two file in it,the key file is 'Pce.key' but not 'PCE.KEY',is this also appear on your computer?

Yes, it is the same on my computer, winzip show the file as 'Pce.key', and when I unzip it (drag and drop on Windows desktop) the file appears as 'PCE.KEY'. I use Windows 2000.
