Mining in deepbit with 5830 and 5850.
i got my first bitcoins from Bitvisitor (0.00088 BTC).
A pal I golf with gave me a lovely gold coin with Bitcoins stored on it. He told me it was the future. Now here I am figuring this gizmo out and looking for some more to play with.
Good work, casascius

Mined with my beloved 5970 
mining with 6790
Mine first coin was :hardly: earned with cgminer+HD6950:)
My first full bitcoin was earned thru CoinWorker. First fraction was from the bitcoin faucet. So far, I haven't purchased any with fiat (I don't have the fiat to spare right now). I'm constantly looking for more ways to earn bitcoin.
I bought a guy a phonecard who was rated on bitcoin-otc. So indirectly I bought it with my credit card.
I got mine by mining with my desktop a few months back, but I decided to stop because I felt like the payout wasn't worth the time and energy spent.
Got Mine at Dailybitcoin.org
its not worth it based on how little it gives you

CPU mining on deepbit. No GPUs at that time 
Purchased my first BTC, but got into mining very shortly after. Went from maybe 150 mhash/s to 1300 mhash/s in about a month, and in a week I'll be closer to 1600-1700 mhash/s.
Also dabbling in LTC as well!

My first bitcent was after dabbling in some CPU/GPU mining...
But soon after, my very first bitcoin was from a fellow Canadian brother offering the convenience of eInterac (EMT) $CAD for $BTC at $5/BTC. Sounds like a great rate by average rates these days ($9/BTC) eh!

I've yet to acquire my first bitcoin. My money is stuck in Dwolla and I'm waiting on the 30 day transaction restriction to be up. I think this technology is amazing, but I don't see it being widely adopted until the ease of transfer is made simpler so that your average user can get their hands on bitcoins easily. I'd imagine that in a few years, it will be easy enough for my mother to do it, but right now, it's a bit confusing for people who aren't as tech savvy as us
Set up a couple GPU's and started mining.
I mined my first ones. The rest have been from sales and investments.
I scammed some sucker by reversing a PayPal transaction after they sent me the coins.
joke?

If you are serious, this warrants a scammer tag. Prevention is the key to a solution.
