Default Special Coolant?

I am going to give my '99 S70 a lil tlc (flush/re fill radiator, rotate tires, re shim a/c, and oil change)tomorrow and went to the part store to get the stuff needed and they told me that their computer say "volvo type" coolant. And said that it would be somthing that i would have to get from the dealer.[sm=yikesomg.gif]

Can someone give me a lil bit more info about this........will any good type of coolant work, OR is it actually something special?If it is special can you give me some places that i can get it other than dealer. And a approx. price.

Thanx in advance!

Does Volvo recommend 50/50 mix Tech? I'm in NC, I assume it would be. I will probably do mine next weekend.
