And here is the answer: SYMPTOMS After you log on to a Microsoft Windows Server 2003-based computer by using a Terminal Services session, the cursor does not blink in programs. For example, the cursor does not blink at the command prompt and in programs such as Notepad. You experience this symptom even after you configure the cursor blink rate in the Keyboard tool in Control Panel. CAUSE This problem occurs because cursor blinking is disabled in Terminal Services sessions in Windows Server 2003.
A hotfix is available for those who feel severely affected by this problem. Well, I'm severely affected (afflicted too), but not by this particular problem as I guess it's been there since installation and I just now noticed it! I'll wait for the next service pack...
