No one will trade you, this is exactly the reason why the XT keyboard is relatively cheap and the AT one expensive. ;)

I totally understand that no one would trade me. I should have made that more obviously a joke. :)
You could build yourself a XT-to-USB adapter. Buy a Teensy 2.0 USB ...

UV will degrade plastics. He should have covered it in peroxide and oxi clean before blasting it with UV. :) Then it would be clean and would reverse any yellowing.

IBM PC-XT keyboard (Model F style)

I have had an old IBM PC-XT keyboard for some time. It's the original XT style keyboard, sometimes known as a Model F, though I guess that really just refers to the capacitive sensing switch that's used.
