I think the issue might be with whatever state my iMac is in, as I had already disabled gatekeeper before I posted and I have not been able to install the office 2011 trial either. I figured that, maybe, the installer in the original 2008 disk was incompatible with ML so I downloaded the 2011 trial and tried to install it. The installer runs and I get all the way to actually installing but, in the end, I get a message telling me that the install failed.
Also, I have since updated two MacBooks and 2008 has continued to work in both. Hi Stefano, Other than gatekeeper there isn't any reason I know of that should cause the installer to stop partway.
