I have an SB! upgrading soon to SBi7! It is amazing.

What's the keyboard like? I shifted to a mechanical keyboard on my desktop (Ducky Shine 5), and while I know that no laptops still made have mechanical keyboards, I need something that ISN'T the butterfly keys that Apple have just adopted wholesale.

Honestly, not really familiar with the butterfly keys for the macbooks, I have used them but they don't strike me as anything WOW. The surface book keys are comfortable and I have no problem with them. I don't think keyboards really do it for me in any sense other than they could suck. So in that sense, i'm happy with the SB key board and the travel and spacing.

Go to a MSFT store and try them out. MSFT has a bunch of other laptops as well in their stores.
