CoC does have a good system, and it can be a lot of fun, but CoC as an introduction to RPGs? There's a whole class of story from people whose introduction to role-playing was CoC who got turned off because they wanted to play heroes bigger, faster, and stronger than normal schmucks and got a race between getting killed and going mad.
I don't want to say anything against CoC, but I don't know that I would use that as an *introduction* to role=playing ...
