Two things:

Drag the corner of the terminal screen to make it larger, you see more.

The Activity Window in Activity Monitor (In your Applications/ 
Utilities folder) shows the same info that top does, in a scrollable  
GUI.

If you're enjoying what you're finding out about Unix, I'd definitely  
recommend the book:

Learning Unix for Mac OS X <http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596009151/>  
This edition is Tiger specific, but most of the info is applicable to  
any version of OS X.
