You'll miss the late additions to the architecture for NVAX and the 9000.
However, you can get the 1990 version, in its internal DEC form rather
than book form, from

Hi,
Since there are some ex-DEC people here and many people knowledgeable in
VAX can anybody tell me the [major] differences between these books if any?
The Brunner book is very expensive, the 1987 copy is very affordable. What
do I miss out on by buying the one by Timothy Leonard from 1987?
I realize the scans are up on bitsavers but I usually find real books
easier to deal with.
Thanks.
