I am more interested in the 830MB of total RAM. I was expexting 1024MB or thereabouts.

You've got about 300MB cached. 'Cached' in Linux means it's used by the system to start applications faster (because RAM is faster than an HDD), but if an application wants to use this memory, the system will free it. You should take 'Free + Cached' as your final amount of free memory. This is what System monitor does as well, by the way.
