LOL, yeah, when I looked at mine it didn't have the date either. How I was looking at it was thru like the "Computer" window from the menu bar-Help-About Windows. But if you type in winver in the start menu search bar and look at it that way it says the date.

Mine is the same, it all depends on what time zone your in, it will be the 1st in the US and they are behind the rest of us so when it expires there it will be the 2nd where you are, so basically it will expire everywhere at exactly the same time.
