Anyone know how to set a secondary language for a Mac? And if it's possible to easily toggle between English and Russian. I've done this on a PC but I've recently switched to Apple.

I don't own a mac but I was bored and googled: http://installingcats.com/2008/05/23/switch-between-keyboards-on-mac/

Open "System preferences", then select "International", then "Input Menu" tab and check the checkbox against the needed language. After that you'll be able to toggle languages either by clicking on the language toolbar (on the main toolbar at the top) or just by pressing CMD+SPACE.

Or, if you already have Spotlight set to CMD+SPACE, you can set it to CMD+SHIFT+SPACE.

To set up two or more language input systems on a mac, you need to go into system preferences/international/input menu and then go from there.

I believe the default keystroke to toggle between languages is the apple key + space bar, but you can set up whatever you want from that same screen.
