Default N00b question...changing to synthetic?

I searched very briefly on this subject so excuse the lame post. Anyways, I was thinkin its about time to change the oil and I was interested in switching over to synthetic oil. Is this a hard process? I wouldn't think it would be hard at all...Just gotta replace the old oil with the new synthetic oil, right? I assume its that easy, but I don't wanna **** anything up being this is my only car.

So what do I have to do to switch over?

yeah it's fine, just switch them out like you would normally. Some people will say you need to flush the system or whatever, but you don't really need to... search the archives next time though and you'll more than likely find a hit or 50 .
