Was there any oxidation on the terminals? I always keep a voltmeter plugged into the cigarette lighter on my volvos and saabs. That way you have an idea of the health of the charging system while driving and the battery when you start-up. My 9000 had a built-in voltmeter, not sure why Saab dropped them when they went to the 9-5.
It is possible your new battery is defective but it could also be the charging system or some sort of low-level drain.
Here is what I mean: http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail/INN0/3721/N1001.oap?ck=Search_voltmeter_1427385_3251&keyword=voltmeter
