Default Switching from conventional to synthetic oil

I just bought a car that has been sitting for two years, and I'm getting ready to get the stale oil out of there and put some fresh stuff in.

Just wondering, would you just put synthetic in, and let the residual conventional that's left in the motor work its way out, or do some sort of mixture of conv/syn the first time?

Just put the Synthetic in and go man. No need to go half and half or anything.
