I like Thief THIS much
Might and Magic. It's the best for getting into the genre. Wizardry is a lot, lot LOT more complex and requires more thought to be put into character creation and levelling up. There's also tons of class combinations you can make, etc etc. If you absolutely want to start with Wiz, do it with 8, it's the easiest to get into.
I'd recommend starting with M&M where you can either create some chars or just take the starting party and go adventuring right away, it's really easy to get into and the perfect introduction to the subgenre. Be sure to have at least one wizard and one cleric in your party though.
