Landis and Cramer sightings.
[Internet buildout is "unstoppable" according to Landis, but a couple days ago he said networkers will have problems in 2H98. Go figure. djane]

Silicon Valley: H&Q Conference
Notebook: Advanced Fibre, VeriSign
and an Albert Einstein Joke!

SAN FRANCISCO -- What's the hot stock of the day at
the Hambrecht & Quist Technology Conference? It's
looking like it may be Advanced Fibre (AFCI:Nasdaq).
According to Kevin Landis, portfolio manager for
Interactive Investments, Advanced Fibre gave an
extremely bullish presentation at the private breakout
session following its 8 a.m. presentation. (The press is
banned from breakout sessions.)

"You almost can't go wrong investing in the buildout of the
Internet," says Landis. "You can argue about
Amazon.com (AMZN:Nasdaq) and whichever model will
work, but it's clear that the buildout is unstoppable."
At
midafternoon AFCI was trading at 43 3/16, up 1. Look for
a feature on Advanced Fibre tomorrow morning on TSC.

Cramer on the Scene

The meeting rooms are loaded with fund managers to talk
to, full of quotable market movers. But there is one
particularly verbose hedge fund head that every other
journalist in the room is interviewing and TSC reporters
can't talk to. The indefatigable Jim Cramer attended the
H&Q conference today, and spent most of the day
surrounded by an admiring throng. But TSC reporters
can't even talk to him about stocks and avoided him like
the plague.

Items by West Coast Bureau Chief Cory Johnson,
contributor Kevin Kelleher and staff reporters Eric
Moskowitz and Kevin Petrie.
