Seven. They are:
Cubic - all angles 90 degrees, all sides equal length
Trigonal - all angles 90 degrees, two sides equal and the third unequal
Orthorhombic - all angles 90 degrees, no sides equal
Hexagonal - two angles 90 degrees and one angle 120 degrees, two sides unequal and the third unequal
Trigonal - all angles equal but not 90, all sides equal
Monoclinic - two angles 90, one more than 90, and no sides equal
Triclinic - no angles equal, no sides equal
For a graphical representation of these, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_system#Classification_of_lattices
