Not really drag and drop but synergy has a copy paste buffer that will work on both.

You can use ssh/scp/or samba to move files back and forth.

or with bootleg you can just run windows on mac hardware.

there is also a program that lets you run windows within OS X, similar to virtual PC, but better. Mac's website has some info on it.
