More good news. Some computer systems are definitely back up - and flights are boarding (manually) and actually departing. Web site was down when I checked a few min. ago.

Delta Flights Slowly Resume After Computer Outage Grounds Airline
Delta Air Lines said it has begun to operate some flights following a major computer systems failure that grounded the airline Sunday evening.
The outage occurred at approximately 7:15 p.m. EST. Only flights that had not yet departed were affected by the problem; flights in the air, the airline said, would be able to continue without issue.
By 9:15 p.m. ET, gate agents were able to board passengers manually by entering confirmation numbers into the computer system.... <SNIP>

This is my first Delta flight (as an AA EP on a challenge) and ABE-DTW was delayed mechanical so to get to CAK I routed through ATL. Well, not really through since I'm still here. The lounge cleared out about an hour and a half ago but my ATL-CAK doesn't have a plane or a gate after a supposed 9:15pm departure.
Just remember - air travel is glamorous!

I was able to book a ticket through our corporate site, couldn't add my number, but I'll go back in and edit the reservation. Can't get in to anything though.
