So I've got a couple of questions relating to the history of cubing:
1) When (and why) did the standard color scheme change to the current one? On original Rubik's cubes, it used to be white/blue, yellow/green, red/orange instead of the current white/yellow, blue/green, red/orange
2) What is generally accepted as the first real speed cube to be released?
I don't know number 1, but number 2 I think is the Rubik's DIY. The Rubik's DIY allowed you to customize tensions and take it apart and mod it. If you want the first non-Rubik's brand speedcube as an answer, ask an older cuber, I'm too new.
