It has had good success, but systems like ChromeOS (and similarly Android) are successful examples because the companies that made them chose Linux as the base for those products.  Usually though, when people think of ChromeOS (or Android), they don't tend to think of Android..  ChromeOS is its own thing that is locked down and limited in what it can do - similar to Android, which is baseed on Linux but locked down to run the Android UI and to run Android apps.  
When people talk about Linux being successful, I think they tend to think of the more traditional Linux distribution.
