Synthetic Oil & high mileage

Hi,
Yes, I realize that I am working myself up into a posting frenzy, that's what a 'new' car will do to you! (2002 9-3 SE, 5spd 88k miles). back when I had a 97 900s I recall the issue being raised of whether it was a good idea to switch to synthetic oil with a higher mileage engine?
Not sure what my current car has been run on, but I gather that Mobil 1 0W-40 full synthetic seems to be the preferred choice. Is the issue of experiencing leaks when switching to synthetic a real potential problem, anyone have any experience?
