Re: hw?
are you talking about the cast iron hot water radiators?
That's what we have and I love it - the radiators can take up a significant amount of space, but it's really nice to be able to lay your shoes or a towel across the radiator to warm it up :)
Any type of furnace can heat the water for the pipes, ours is an oil furnace, but it could be natural gas, propane or electric as well.

Re: hw?
My DH is an engineer who designs HVAC systems for a living. He does commercial consulting work -- but he says HW heat is the best you can get for a residence.
We have forced air - DH would have much preferred hot water!

Re: hw?
My parents have it. They have an oil furnace with it.
We have the forced hot air and there is definitely a difference - the hot water heat isn't as dry and it doesn't create as much dust.
