The easiest way would be to get a Floppy Emu

Else you need a bridge system.  I have had success using an old Win 98 Pentium Laptop that had both a USB 1 port and a floppy port.  This allowed me to move files in the following way.

PC ->USB Stick -> Windows Laptop ->Floppy -> Mac

I call this, the time machine method  :)

This however was a pain and sometimes Windows would corrupt the Mac files.  Also some files are just too big for a floppy.

Now I use a PowerBook 540c connected to the internet, I download the file, unstuff it and move it to an older Mac via floppy or LocalTalk.  Works very well.
