I'll second Roman Kanala's endorsement of SoftPC.  Let me add in response
to his comment:

One of the strengths of SoftPC is its support for a variety of third-party
DOS-capable floppy drives (in addition to support for the internal
SuperDrive as drive A:).  These include products from Kennect and Dayna.
SoftPC also include an application called "Slave PC" (love the name ;-) )
that allows the Mac to use the floppy drives of a serially-connected
PC as if they were mounted B: drives.
