I believe gpedit.msc is only available in Business, Enterprise and Ultimate.
 
Correct, a lot of the security management tools have been removed in the home
editions.

Try opening mmc.exe and then add the Group Policy snap-ins. I don't know if
they are removed as well, but it is worth a shot.

I don't see it in the list in my Vista Home Premium (System Builder Kit).
It it's there, either a policy is keeping it from being displayed, or it's not
actually called the "Group Policy Editor". If anyone knows any different, or
if it's denied by a policy I have no control of (I am Owner and Administrator
of my computer in all senses of the words), I would certainly appreciate
anyone telling me how to enable it in the list.
