The HP 2640A and other HP 264X models were block-mode "smart" and intelligent ASCII standard serial terminals produced by Hewlett Packard using the Intel 8008 and 8080 microprocessors.
The HP 2640A was introduced in 1975, and used an Intel 8008 CPU, and was priced at US$3500. At introduction, it could have up to 8 KB of RAM (two 4 KB semiconductor RAM cards). Also introduced in 1975 was the HP 2644A, which was an HP 2640A with mass storage (two mini-tape cartridges), for US$5000.
The HP catalogs usually refer to the terminal model as simply "2640A", and infrequently as "HP 2640", or "HP 2640A" (both with a blank after the "HP"), or "2640". The incorrect "HP2640" and "HP2640A" are often seen outside of HP.
The functionality defined by the HP 264X series hasn't changed much as the preferred terminal for HP1000 and HP3000 series computers. They never achieved the notoriety of the VT100 among programmers, but included sophisticated features not found in the VT100, such as offline forms, multipages, and (in some models) local storage.

And you want my love
Well that's alright
Well it will be there for you morning, noon and night
But you gotta be good
And do it right
Ain't got no time for part-time lovin' in my life
Well you wanna be loved (uh)
Hey that's o.k.
'cause it falls in line right with my sexuality
But you gotta be down
A nickel gotta be true
'cause otherwise this "b" ain't got no time for you
Oh baby, baby, baby
I got so much love in me
Ooh (baby, baby) baby, baby, baby
'cause if you're gonna get me off
You got to love me deep
Well you want my heart (uh)
And all my time
Well it won't be there if you can't deal with my mind
'cause a girl like me (uh)
Won't stand for less
I require plenty conversation with my sex
Long as you know that I could have any man I want to
Baby that's actual and factual
But still I choose you to be with me
And work on me so you better not flake it up
Ohhhhhh

Baby, baby, baby
Ain't got no time for the part-time lovin'

You got to love me deep

You got to love me, got to love me, got to love me

But I think you know that I'd rather be here with you (yeah)
