[REVIEW] CORSAIR Vengeance M90 Performance MMO and RTS Laser Gaming Mouse

It seemed like forever when Corsair first announced their Vengeance line of gaming peripherals, and I was immediately sold on the M90. After a long, torturous wait, I finally managed to snag one for myself! It's already been quite a while since these hit the market, but due to certain software issues, I could not do a complete review. Now, with a more or less stable release, here's my honest take on the M90 mouse!
