Cheap way:
You can copy a lot of fonts from umich ftp accessible from:
<ftp://mirrors.aol.com/mir01/MICH/mac/system.extensions/font/truetype/>.
You need TT Converter to convert them to Windows fonts
<ftp://mirrors.aol.com/mir01/MICH/mac/util/font/ttconverter1.5.cpt.hqx>.

If you want to use your existing fonts. Use TT Converter to convert your
Mac TrueType (Helvetica included in Mac system) to PC version. If you need
to convert Type 1 or Type 3 fonts to PC, you may need to buy Fontographer
from Macromedia.
