9-5 aero -- how often for oil changes -- and what oil?

I just purchased a used 2000 9-5 Aero, and am just wanting to get a poll how often those of you that have these get oil changes. The car has 14,000 miles on it, and my seller said the only change he did was the 10,000 mile dealer oil change. The manual says something about mixing in a change every 5,000 miles in between stops. But my buyer said this wasn't necessary and with the synthetic oil and whatnot every 10,000 was fine. That seems crazy to me.
So I just want to do whatever I should for the Saab--so how often do those of you that have this car change the oil--and if you change it someplace other than at the dealer, what type, grade, etc, oil do you use?
TIA!
Scott
