Off his about page-
Economy: Good

I'd say that's an understatement

The economy definitely is not good. Hell, the government shutdown made everything even worse. I say the economy is good when I can afford a CC

That is about Notch i.e. his personal economy.

What's going on with that Enter key? Does someone know what layout that would be so we can see it from the top?

Looks suspiciously like an ISO enter to me.

Okay, I guess so. I wasn't seeing the wider part on the top but it's less significant than I remembered anyway.

That is ordinary Swedish/Finnish layout (ISO).

Yes.  And also that Notch does not actually claim that it is his keyboard, or that he is using it regularly, or indeed at all.

But he tends to post things that are of or about himself.
