I would set up 3 computers, each with a separate top chess program. When 2 or
more of the computers agree about the best move, it would be played. But if all
3 disagree, then one of them would be chosen by a master level player. In other
words, it will be a collusion between computers and a human to produce the best
moves possible.

Which top chess programs should be used? We can disagree about this part of it.
To start I will suggest Deep Fritz, Hiarcs 7.32, and Chessmaster 8000 as a good
combination.

I know it's a good method, because I use it. I haven't lost a game of chess in
the last several years, and have had less than a handful of draws.
