You only get one or the other, not both. Not unless the newer Macs have some setting not available on either of my Macs.

I've configured my MBP trackpad to work on both. Open System Preferences, click the "trackpad" icon, then underneath "One Finger" check the box that says "Secondary Click" and choose which side of the trackpad you prefer (i chose the bottom right because it's typical).

Good luck.
