How many opperating systems are there?

There's three "major" operating systems as of 2008: Mac OS, Windows, and Linux.

Mac OS & Windows have had several versions through the years, and Linux has several different releases - referred to as "distros" - that all have their own version history.

However, if you're counting every version of every operating system since the beginning of time, there would be hundreds.
