We are talking about correspondence chess when the human can use chess programs
to help him.

Gandalf drew 2-2 against humans in exactly the same condition against 4 strong
correspondence players.

The interesting question is if the team human+computer is stronger than computer
in correspondence chess.

Note that the computer has the advantage of having more time because I do not
expect the human to buy 6 different computers for a match against 6 computers at
the same time.
