23 days of mining on a raspberry pi = 0.00000013 BTC – Nicolai Mar 15 '13 at 17:54

If you join a mining pool, like Slush or Deepbit, you will still get a tiny revenue. On a regular computer (with none of that GPU/FPGA/ASIC stuff), you get 0.7-1.5 MHashes per second. You'd get about 0.000007 BTC (just an estimate) every few hours.
